You seem to have read over "with nondigits ignored" above. I know of
no ANSI C function that does this.

No argument here, my untested code was the best example <g>.

To distract from that, and to get back on-topic, I'm going to point
out an error in Fred: When the directory where it wants to drop its
temporary files cannot be written to, a NullPointerException occurs
(usually in SegmentedOutputStream.java:148) normally ending with Fred
going catatonic. This could be handled more cleanly.
