I use: lng=`{echo $here(2) | sed -e 's/^-(.*)/+\1/' -e 's/^([0-9])/-\1/'} Because double negatives (--) don't seem to cut it in the URL :-) I imagine there's a better way, but rc programming is not my strong suit. And I can't test now the simplification that drops the \1 from the first term. I got caught by the fact that the space after -e is mandatory (why?) and the first \1 belongs to me trying to figure out what I was doing wrong. ++L
