I just posted my version of cliparse.c to alt.sources.amiga. I hope
it reaches the other side of the pond, too. Here's the blurb:

This is my version of the _cliparse() function for the Aztec C compiler.
You need the original cliparse.c from the 5.0 distribution diskettes and
the patch program to extract a working version.

This version properly supports quoted tokens and preprocesses the escaped
characters inside quoted tokens.

[end of blurb]

Actually, I have a question about the standard escape sequences. I have
never found a complete list of them and am assuming that the standard
sequences are: "**", "*"", "*e", "*E", "*n" and "*N". Have I missed any?

There's also an assumption which I had to make (I had to write around a
`feature' in some Manx-compiled programs, for example, Make). I'm assuming
that the last character on the supplied command line is always a newline.
Is this true for OS 2.0? How about program launches in SAS-compiled programs?
