In directory netbsd.hut.fi:/tmp/cvs-serv8073

Log Message:
Initial import of whatmask-1.0

Whatmask is a small C program that lets you easily convert between three common
subnet mask notations.

Notations supported:

        Name                  Example
        ---------------------------------
        CIDR                         /24
        Netmask            255.255.255.0
        Wilcard Bits           0.0.0.255

The above notations are all identical. CIDR notation commonly has a "/" in
front of the number (representing the number of bits). Whatmask can accept
these notations with or without a slash. This notation is used more and more
recently. A lot of popular routers and software supprt this notation. 

Netmask notation is pretty much the standard old-school way of doing it. It is
supported by most systems (Un*x, Win, Mac, etc.). 

Wilcard bits are similar to the netmask, but they are the logical not of the
netmask. This notation is used by a number of popular routers.
