This isn't about adding a parser for anything, this is about making the tools in base, like netstat, wc, uptime, etc, output in JSON or XML, so you can use the data programmatically. Your scripts no longer have to rely on awk/sed/grep magic to get a specific bit of information out of the uptime command, the command can just output the data in a structured machine readable format. I am not sure how you can put netstat into the ports tree. --=20 Allan Jude --5I1KuTN0BdWEfaLX6iffIWpnkSXKhuTUD Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (MingW32) iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJU82QzAAoJEJrBFpNRJZKfZPcQAJH1H90OdW2/RWkPtaxl9WvB TeKL3C5bFfR8bbXj934BPDQnkxgOmbTq8lk4G/mYgME5wYrH48Vm20W5KPAqNLas dPd4hExFfCdGLfP+OUwdkdbvJIeDZaU9nmNzBHM7q0LvtDqopvXuhZ62ycO1ywdq 9YT7pS+rSzz2TfuePeS0C/sCYRnnHT8rG4Wbyjd3iJlfD3VTafm/QUy/TJTrZyg4 U6+VUizlwNjCqz+HQID8zECfnh44Z6nGlNZsSyKDGlFLCr/7jvoxko1jEwROsP2d uSs0tHN9a85Xsl1uT9mY9L0f9K7+Y+8SqehYxMGFF/RxeFgJYZwaGUwrdd19EN4V w9HTYaIhPkAFovqk5M6z2MP0QjRmXu9EUNUPN8c2qE0nLUrHrqhDkaGAxi+qjmzd ZELY6dqUxuu7rIiKePDGnLMvx0URIUQ4aSjmr9ZV2OtZ2hL/5iQbp8b+OoJH+7LN 0yQIm6+Mwp+SWq6Z/aokBOED3AcbsVYSvDFGSCO9ZqHT19f6VUMfnhkc0+ZJPpjg +yud72e635I0wYNhX2MA7TZfsr1R+6aowFMCQFFDp9xCO38dAdvNc6/oX5o9lqWm q91yTYrVrdTrtabNDc6EkclRFLh9zTd+QbNIshlERceEbCRi4na5bzmxlCIZhjvW MD1ySR1au3xTXV3mJnIT =i9Qf -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --5I1KuTN0BdWEfaLX6iffIWpnkSXKhuTUD--
