I remember somebody posted this to one of the sources groups in the last month or so (alt.sources I believe). It's a set of variations on sprintf, which generate the output in a variety of formats. There was a followup for centralised text. It wasn't very big, so I'd appreciate mailed copies to richb@Aus.Sun.COM, or a pointer to where I can ftp it from. I've looked in various sites that archive alt.sources, but it's difficult to tell where it might be with 400 files of the form 1234.Z, 1235.Z etc... and no subject summary line listing saved away. zcat *.Z | grep "^Subject" | compress -c >subject.index.Z would be nice addition to this sort of archive directory.
