Hi Bob, Thanks! You clarified a trick problem. After what you said, I tried: vim +"r ! find . -name 'error*' -printf '\%f\n'" themain.c And voilá! It worked! Just scape the % and you can use it, as vi passes to find the correct char %. Thanks! Beco -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
