This file describes how to use the parser.cc library.

First thing you need to set up a set of command tables in your
program.  These tables are of type command_t, defined below:

typedef struct cmd {
    char 	* name;
    void 	(* func)(int, char **);
    struct cmd 	* sub_cmd;
} command_t;


'name' is the name of the command. what the user types at the command-line.
'func' is the function to call to execute the command.
'sub_cmd' is another command table for multi-word commands.

All functions called by the parser are called with an argc, argv
style.  So all functions that appear in the 'func' field must have a
prototype of:
	void func(int, char **)

Here's a sample table.  There are 3 commands contained in the table:
"?", "list", and "show."  Note that the table is null terminated.

command_t commands[] = {
    { "?",		quick_help, 	0},
    { "list",		list_vols,	list_cmds},
    { "show",		0,		show_cmds},
    { 0, 0, 0}
};

The first entry, "?", is a simple command.  If the user types "?" at
the command-line, the function 'quick_help' will be called.  The third
entry, "show" will cause the second word of the command to be looked
up in the 'show_cmds' table.  So, if you want to have two commands,
"show vnode" and "show directory"  The 'show_cmds' table needs to have
entries for both "vnode" and "directory."  The second entry, "list" is
a little more complicated in that it has both a function to perform
the command and a table of sub-commands.  If the command "list" is
entered, the function 'list_vols' will be called, but if the commands
"list volumes" is entered, the parser will look up "volumes" in the
'list_cmds' table.


Once you have set up your command tables, you can use the parser in
your program.  Before calling the parsing function, you must
initialize the parser by calling 'init_parser.'  Its prototype
follows:
	void init_parser(char * prompt, command_t * cmds);

'prompt' is the command prompt you want to use.
'cmds' is the top-level command table to start parsing with.

The only other step is to call 'parse_cmds'  Note that 'parse_cmds'
will not return until the function 'exit_parser' is called, so there
should be an entry in your command table that will call 'exit_parser'
For example:
    { "exit",		exit_parser,	0},

To add functionality to any program using the parser, simply add an
entry to the command table.
