It seems to me that a lot of people missed the point of one of the warnings that someone else posted in response actually. Don't use cat routinely to view files. Use more, or better yet less since less doesn't view binary files by default. Doug -- *** Chief Operations Officer, DALnet IRC network *** "Yes, the president should resign. He has lied to the American people, time and time again, and betrayed their trust. He is no longer an effective leader. Since he has admitted guilt, there is no reason to put the American people through an impeachment.
