I think we can summarize this part as "I am trying to write xargs". Even if you are not, what you are doing with your command line arguments is essentially the same as what xargs does, and I think that's a legitimate need.

Very incisive, it's very much like xargs command line. And putting it that way, I believe there was another chap here last week looking at the same thing. Thank you, I'll go see if he was given the answer I should have read before now. :) -- Blue Skies
