I'm linking this to a bunch of older unix scripts and they were all developed a bit differently...ugg....and it really isn't feasible to go and change all the legacy scripts so they work the same.
This is what I'm using right now.
The script finds the //FAX keyword and then parses it. It works if it's in the correct order and has a certain number of variables. Otherwise, it kind of dies.
I also need to be able to retrieve different instances of the //FAX keyword in the same file.....
Thanks a bunch for your reply. I really appreciate it!

re_exec
RE_COMP(3) Linux Programmer's Manual RE_COMP(3)NAME
re_comp, re_exec - BSD regex functions
SYNOPSIS
#define _REGEX_RE_COMP
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <regex.h>
char *re_comp(char *regex);
int re_exec(char *string);
DESCRIPTION
re_comp() is used to compile the null-terminated regular expression pointed to by regex. The compiled pattern occupies a static area, the
pattern buffer, which is overwritten by subsequent use of re_comp(). If regex is NULL, no operation is performed and the pattern buffer's
contents are not altered.
re_exec() is used to assess whether the null-terminated string pointed to by string matches the previously compiled regex.
RETURN VALUE
re_comp() returns NULL on successful compilation of regex otherwise it returns a pointer to an appropriate error message.
re_exec() returns 1 for a successful match, zero for failure.
CONFORMING TO
4.3BSD.
NOTES
These functions are obsolete; the functions documented in regcomp(3) should be used instead.
