Cool! Any way to put it into a shell script/alias? Something like: sudo apt-get install --dry-run $1 | sed -n.... So that "$1" accepts the value given while running that script. I'm very low on scripting-fu, but like to turn long commands in to aliases so that I need to type least. :) -- Regards, Nitesh Mistry | www.mistrynitesh.com PGP key id: A6FEF696 | 'geekosopher' on freenode irc
