Folks, I have been looking for a little regex that would remove NULL (blank) lines from input. I have a little script that parses the output of timex (unix), unfortuanly the timex output is prepended with a blank line and appended with a blank line as such (timex ps -ef > /dev/nul) 2>&1 [begin output] real 0.00 user 0.00 sys 0.0 [end output] Regards, Ron
