I haven't used Perl to parse Java. But it's a good tool for parsing
all kinds of text, as in the original question.

} Richard,
} dont know Perl but Daniel is spot on for VB and VC..
} Now, in Perl can you look at Java Window and parse it?
} To give you an example - in VB i find JAva window through API's and copy th
} e content and parse it. Fortunately it is in text format. It is an awkward
} step as you need to focus mouse on that window.
} Can you look inside the java window using perl and parse it?
} I just need direction - if yes i will learn about it.
} Thanks
} David
