[Qgis-developer] Post processing task for GRASS algorithms

[Victor Olaya]

Hi all

I am considering adding some post processing for algorithms from
external apps, like GRASS ones. My idea is that if the algorithm needs
something extra thing to be done (for instance, parsing output text
and formatting it with the interesting values in case the process
prints valuable information to the console, or creating output objects
if it generates an undefined number of layers), an additional python
file with the name of the algorithm and the additional processing
method could be added.

I am probably writing down the base ideas for that, but it will then
need work to be done for each "special" algorithm. Is it realistic to
think that this work will be done sometime soon? do you think it is a
good idea to do this?

Thanks for your help!
