Re: command line argument for ns?

See the thread ending:
http://www-mash.CS.Berkeley.EDU/dist/archive/ns-users/9810/0063.html

I'd point you to the actual recursive handle-parameters-and-switches
example code I posted earlier in that thread, but I stupidly posted
that email on the last day of a month; as a result, it's not visible
in the index for 9809.

The ns-users list archives are lossy.
