No, it just remembers that the playlist file exists (ignoring its contents), and will tell that to the client via "lsinfo". The client can then choose to issue a "load" command for this playlist file. Or it can use "listplaylist[info]" to view the contents of the playlist file. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keep yourself connected to Go Parallel: INSIGHTS What's next for parallel hardware, programming and related areas?
