UTSL - good idea. why didn't I think of that? :) (pts/8)root@marsala:/tmp/cdrtools-2.0/cdrecord$ grep -i return * | grep "\-2" (pts/8)root@marsala:/tmp/cdrtools-2.0/cdrecord$ grep -i exit * | grep "\-2" cdrecord.c: comexit(errs?-2:0); you are right. looks like cdrecord exits witch -2 whenever errs is non-zero. there are 6 cases when errs++ occurs. cdrecord.c line number: 940 1077 1083 1094 1106 1134 This is the first time I have actually used apt-get source. For some reason I always expected browsing through the code to be a lot harder than this. Now I see the advantage in having the source readily available.

'info make' for all the details. cool. thanks again. -jason pepas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
