The *other* banner is the useful one. /usr/bin/banner in the Debian "sysvbanner" package. It is in the public domain. We use it a lot to visually tag output to the screen. I don't find the BSD one very useful, who has continuous tractor feed paper printers these days? :-) Bob _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
