Sounds interesting. Does anyone have a man page for this program that they would be willing to email me (our Sun release doesn't appear to include it)? Also, could you a give a complete reference for the Nicklin and Mosher article? Thanks. -- Tom Cunningham "Good, fast, cheap -- select two." USPS: Motorola Inc. 6501 William Cannon Dr. W.
