You could then intercept the command string that you seek and queue it up for your server code to handle. However, the normal way that software does this is to register a command prefix so that clashes are avoided with other software products and subsystems - so in the end you will end up with something like (xxxx being your command prefix) : xxxx D FOO,BAR It is subjective if that is preferable to "F server,D FOO,BAR" ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
