Hi, That's okay. I appreciate the effort. I had some specific thoughts on a design that might have been tough to integrate into the cish code anyway. Basically, I was looking at implementing logical command sets as dynamically loaded shared libs so they could be easily removed if they were not needed (ie; system, interface, wireless, routing, bridging, etc.). This should also make it fairly easy for others to add new command sets without the need to dig into the core code. I figured if I was going to take the time, I should try to make it useable in all the leaf distros. The core would simply source all of the available libs and load them creating the global command set and contextual help. I plan to use c++ to code the package. It is a lot easier to just grab a pointer from the lib to an object with all of it's data and functions. It also lends itself to extensibility by providing a predefined interface for the command libs. This would be very minimal c++. Just enough to get the encapsulation. No templates or other large non-portable stuff. I would welcome any thoughts or ideas on the package.

The domain was not renewed for a day or two..... but it appears to be permanent this year. IIRC, CISH was also on SF, but I can't find it there either now. Appearently Pim had it removed (which would have taken atleast minimal effort). I used it to get used to IOS configuration, though it wasn't really suggested for actual use by the time the shell was stable. I would believe it would be updatable if the SRC code still exists. > I think David Douthitt was the last one to compile cish into a leaf > package. > > http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/leaf/bin/packages/glibc-2.0/cish.lrp That would be correct IIRC. I never got all the dependancies matched with DD's package, but I did use the CISH released image. I don't think I have the SRC code, but I do have a copy of the image that was realeased. If anyone wants it, feel free to drop me a mail (or I'll link it on my web server). -- ~Lynn Avants Linux Embedded Appliance Firewall Developer http://leaf.sourceforge.net http://guitarlynn.homelinux.org:81 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.
