I guess everyone has been busy trying to enjoy the holidays with their families. I have posted many questions that I have not received a singel answer to yet! Two of them I had figured out, evenutually for myself and posted the solutions. As long as we post solutions then I am content wether I solve it on my own or someone else helps out. Just as long as we help one another. It is amazing what can be solved in a little amount of time with just one question being answered. I apologize for not posting earlier to this message not that I am knowledgeable or anything with zsh but I am resourceful.
