Righto.  I'm doing the same thing for a application scriptor
that I'm writing.  Currently I'm using a LEDA dictionary to associate
a string (read in from a file) and a function call.  The way I'm
currently doing it is:

class Command {
...
  int functioncall(...);
}

class CommandTable {
...
diction<string,Command> myDictionary;
...
void addCommand(string&,Command&);

Command& get(string&);
}

Anyway, I hope you get the general idea.  BTW, if anyone has created
this simple scripting system before...pls mail me.
