Description Nicolas Brisset 2007-06-07 17:44:08 UTC
Version:           1.3.1 (using KDE 3.4.0, compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.4.3
OS:                SunOS (sun4u) release 5.8

I saved one of my colleagues' life today with d2asc :-) but he has to to a lot of tedious script manipulations because he needs more than 40 variables from the data file.
Looking at the source code, I see than 40 is a hardcoded value for the number of fields and I understand why it crashes :-( It would be nice to read all variable names passed (to the limit of the command line length!), or even better allow to read them from a file.

Looks good to me.
