That is a much better approach -- more general. I have a couple of nits:
the use of "?:" to determine the strings doesn't allow for growth :)
If the args were colon-separated key=value pairs, then I could do
eval `echo $1 | tr : ' '`
The second nit allows for expansion, and also means xT_ADD could become
WHERE=BRANCH:OP=ADDTAG
and C_ADD would be
OP=ADDFILE
or some such mixture. (Clearly the opcodes are disjoint to allow a single
script to handle both things.)
What's the likelihood of that functionality appearing?
