Actually, if memory serves, I sent patches in last April for the
fetchSpec support after I added it in eojenerator and found it very
useful...
Unfortunately, eojenerator has gone through a few hands in the meantime
and looks pretty messy:
http://www.prnet.de/RegEx/eojenerator.tgz
The bulk has been moved to a framework, and it needs Wonder. The
*really* useful thing would be to also refactor the DevStudio app to a
framework and add the stuff there, so you can run it as a daemon and
the startup times aren't so high. But who has the time for this?)
So it's been stagnant for some time now and I created the app only to
make some documentation the EOTemplate tool refused to create for some
reason or other. And even if it did, do I really have enough
brain-capacity to learn yet *another* template language? Did you look
at this "Procedure()" stuff? Yuck.
Using WO, those templates were finished in an hour or two and I will
still understand them when I take a look again in a year or so...
Cheers, Anjo
