SYNOPSIS

package foo;
use Meta::Utils::Pc qw();
my($clean_text)=Meta::Utils::Pc::clean($pc_data);

DESCRIPTION

This is a library to help you deal with pc junk. This will umount all dirs in a pc, do pc path conversion and the like. This is really a drag because PC's have so little capabilities...

FUNCTIONS

clean($)
umount_all($$$)
umount_all_mult($$$)
results($$$$)
make_perl_inte($$$)
writ_perl_inte($$$$)
get_temp_dir()
pc_path($)
TEST($)

FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION

clean($)

This will split pc output according to lines and put it in an array for you.

umount_all($$$)

This routine received a pc name and umount all mounts on that pc.

umount_all_mult($$$)

This is exactly like the "umount_all" function except the first argument is a list of pc's to umount and this one calls "umount_all" for each of them.

results($$$$)

This routine receives a command to do on the pc and does it,splits the results into lines and returns the array of lines.

make_perl_inte($$$)

This makes a perl interpreter syntax from a command. It is currently quite simple and I hope it will be sufficient. The idea is to simulate a real shell on a handicapped MS windoze pc. The only real tool which is able to do it seems to be perl (and it is certainly sufficient...). The parameters are: 0. comm - the command to be executed (could be a sequence of comma separated commands). 1. file - the file into which to write the interpreter. 2. curr - the current directory. 3. targ - the list of targets which are to be extracted from the pc. 4. tdir - where is the target directory where temp targets could be stored.

writ_perl_inte($$$$)

This writes a perl script out of a command into a file.

get_temp_dir()

This gives you the temporary directory (unix style) of work on a pc.

pc_path()

This converts a unix string into a pc string. (converting the god damn slashes...
