jezz, this is nutso. the term smokers that schwern chose refers to smoking code as in testing it to see if it blows up in a blaze of flame and smoke. in the hardware world powering up a box or power supply for the first time is known as a smoke test (you don't want to see any smoke then). the name has nothing to do with tobacco or human smoking. so drop this thread. smokers is a fine name choice for a severe testbed system. does everyone get it? smoke is an established term in the testing world. uri -- Uri Guttman --------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------- http://www.sysarch.com SYStems ARCHitecture, Software Engineering, Perl, Internet, UNIX Consulting The Perl Books Page ----------- http://www.sysarch.com/cgi-bin/perl_books The Best Search Engine on the Net ---------- http://www.northernlight.com
