ECSParse not allows you to specify everything as arguments... remember to put "" around
event names with more than one word. run ECSParse.bat without 
arguments and you get prompted for inputs.

gotta love perl... chomp is actually very cool. a chomp operator will remove the last
character of a string ONLY if it is a carriage return. it lets you be a little 
slack in that you don't have to check what character you are removing...

let me know if you have any problems with that revision....
