Reading my reply to you Angus, I did not make it as clear as I should have..It sounds like I was talking about writing a bash script but "script" is a program that makes text files. It has nothing to do with regular expressions and such. I didn't want you to just put it in the "too hard to do" file. If you read the manpage "man script" it explains it in about a hundred words or less..it is very simple to use, just type in a terminal script whatevername.txt and hit enter..it will say. script started (the name.txt. When you are done type "exit" and it will say script stopped. your file will be in the working directory. Olly P -- 9:18pm up 5 days, 46 min, 8 users, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00
