while you are in there, can you cahnge the print functions so that they
are consistent?

the output should be 'x.x.x.x' or 'x.x.x.x/x'.

in some cases, i have seen select's which output 'x.x.x/24', which totally
defeats the purpose of classless ip addrs.

either the addrs are classless, or they are not.

the current print stuff seems to make special cases of classful addresses.
