There's a very slightly clever modification that gets rid of the extra grep... Try.. [appropriate ps command for your platform] | egrep '[p]ostmaster' That egrep _won't_ match its own command line. -- let name="cbbrowne" and tld="ntlug.org" in String.concat "@" [name;tld];; http://www3.sympatico.ca/cbbrowne/multiplexor.html He doesn't have much of a reputation, or so I've heard. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
