I have come to believe that "environment variables" is a misnomer; the array is just another array of pointers passed to exec()/spawn(). It appears that if a program is compile/linked in Enhanced ASCII mode, the environment variable array is translated (by spawn()/exec()?) to ASCII. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
