Uhmm, could you tell me what's missing? The best way to know is to
compare the contents of objects.h (old) and obj_mac.h (new, included
by objects.h for now).
The big deal is that when I added a large bunch of OIDs, I got sick
and tired of all the things that needed to get done manually just to
add those, so I tool up objects.txt, which was obviously made for
this, just not completed, and did what I thought was the right thing
then. As it is now, I see a number of things that weren't done quite
right, which is why I'm looking at ways to redo it in a better and
hopefully more flexible way.
There were a number of syntactic extras I put into objects.txt to get
past some naming quirks that I found while working on it... The best
way to find out what they do is currently to read objects.README and
objects.pl...
