[tap-l] Outputting TAP from the shell

[Patrick LeBoutillier]

Hi all,

A while back I ported libtap to Java (I called it JTap:
http://testanything.org/wiki/index.php/JTap).
I was looking at it earlier today after following this thread and was
thinking I might try to port it to bash (it would really just be a
batch of functions with a few globals, nothing too fancy).

Would anyone be interested?

Patrick
