Heh, I wasn't schooling you -- you would have figured it out if you'd actually run that script. I actually have that script stuck in my ~/bin, so i just cut'n'pasted it. Csh/Sh/Bash whatever. I actually WROTE a fully functional C shell for dos, back in the mid-80s. So I know the syntax really well. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
