It's not that you also called files "sheets of paper", and hard disks "drawers for putting folders in" :-) I know that I sound picky, but using proper terminology is important. Please don't feel offended personally - I'm correcting nearly everyone who talks about "folders" on this list. --=20 Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
