Well I /did/ have an even stupider parser in mind if segmented config
files got shot down...
/etc/xfs/mkfs/uek5.conf:
data.agcount 32
metadata.reflink 0
# mkfs.xfs -t uek5 /dev/sda
open("/etc/xfs/mkfs/${t_optarg}.conf")...
Then we can parse it with a simple fgets/strtok loop to tokenize the
input lines and feed them to the geometry arg parser. But I'll go read
your paper all the way through first before I scribble more. :)
