new stream_filter which copies pubsub_filtered code but just uses stdin stdout

[ploxiln]

a new much simpler batch-oriented tool that I find useful

perhaps should be refactored and consolidated ... the whole Makefile and everything could be cleaned up in another pull request

Here's a whack-a-string alternative; copied so some field names do not make sense.

char **parse_fields(char *key, int *nkeys)
{
    char **argv, *p=key;
    int dots=0, argsz=8;

    *nkeys = 0;
    if (!key) return NULL;
    p = strdup(key);
    argv = calloc(argsz, sizeof(char *));
    argv[0] = p;
    while (*p) {
        if (*p == ',') {
            *p = '\0';
            argv[++dots] = p+1;
            if (dots == argsz) {
                argsz *= 2;
                argv = realloc(argv, argsz);
            }
        }
        p++;
    }
    *nkeys = dots+1;
    return argv;
}

that comment that you're responding to is actually just copied from pubsub_filtered which Jehiah suggested you originally wrote...
