I can post the (t)csh output from the other script if needed. I just re-read your e-mail and it clicked that you were trying different shells with the same script. The first line of the script will be the shell that the script should be run with. It will be something like #!/bin/sh or #!/bin/csh #!/usr/local/bin/bash or whatever shell it was designed for. This is the shell you need to run the script. -- Stuart Tanner <stuart@sigterm.com> Dave Mack: "Your stupidity, Allen, is simply not up to par." Allen Gwinn: "Yours is."
