Parsing traps with snmptrapd

All,

I'm re-visiting a number of problems I've had in the past, and I'm back 
to my "parsing traps" problem.

snmptrapd produces traps as follows:

2004-01-30 07:58:46 e0-0.router.example.net [192.168.1.2] (via 
10.180.109.2) TRAP, SNMP v1, community nms-traps
        CISCO-SMI::ciscoMgmt.26.2 Enterprise Specific Trap (2) Uptime: 58:
        CISCO-SMI::ciscoMgmt.26.1.1.1.1.3.7.1 8 
CISCO-SMI::ciscoMgmt.26.1.1.1.1.4.7.1 "router2" 
CISCO-SMI::ciscoMgmt.26.1.1.1.1.5.7.1 "00442074848222"

What I want to do is to parse these easily without having to resort to 
jumping through hoops and lots of regex matching.

The ideal situation would be to have snmptrapd producing traps in a 
format similar to "<oid><tab><value>", making parsing incredibly easy.

Is this possible with snmptrapd in 5.0.9?  Is it planned to have 'easily 
parsable' output in a future version?  Would I be taking on too big a 
job trying to produce a patch for snmptrapd?


Peter.
