Thanks Charlie - a good idea, indeed.

I planned to include a "sh ip bgp" output parser for some time, and now I've 
got 
some time to do the work. I will bring up the next release soon, and this will 
include our patch.

Definitely a needed feature when needing to lab-up BGP peering. I Just 
'patched' the latest and got multiple BGP peers working at the same time. 
Exactly what I was needing to do, currently working on BGP for CCIP & CCIE/SP. 
My only other alternative was to build a separate machine for each BGP peer and 
I *wasn't* looking forward to that! Thank you for the patch charlie.allom & 
the.einval for an awesome tool!
