RE: {bb} HTML table formatting

[Jerry Shenk <jas@dect.com>]

Don't know if this is what you're looking for or not but I have a bbstat 
account on a couple of my bbhost machines so from my SMS phone (normally 
while driving), I can send a message to bbstat@hostname_or_ipaddress and get 
a response back listing the RED, YELLOW and CLEAR lights in that order.  
Obviously space is sorely limited so if there are more than three REDs, 
that's the end of the message.  I do not have it set up to split the message 
up.  This actually works pretty well.  Right now, it returns the entire 
FQDN.service that is in one of the above states.  I'd like to use cut to 
take only the first and last parameters so that I can get more hosts listed.


If you want, I can mail you my procmail recipe that does all the work.
