There is a very simple option to avoid typing all that, and still come up with the right filename. Type part of the name, e.g. usr/src/RPM/BUILD/I810 and then press the TAB key. This invokes the autocompletion function of unix. If there is only 1 file that fits the name, the complete name will be finished for you. Otherwise the candidates for the name will be shown and you can add a few more letters to the name and hit TAB again. Get used to it, and you'll love it :) Paul -- All human wisdom can be captured in 2 words: HOPE and WAIT )0(- - [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] - -)0( http://nlpagan.net - ICQ 147208 Registered Linux User 174403
