So sorry to see you go.
There's nothing bad about me unsubscribing (you're reading me very
negatively!). Its just I get so much mail that I prefer to
unsubscribe and browse HTML archives if I'm not actively asking
something.
The only cross-platform, foolproof way of keeping track of the
command-line used to launch a program regardless of the complexity that
I can think of is to make a note of it in the program that launched the
command-line. If you really wanted to, you could even pass it as an
argument to your script.
I'd need to think about that more, but this might lead to a more sane
solution that the way I did it in my OP -)
BTW, JupiterHost didn't misunderstand you.
There's no malice in my writing "misread" btw, I do it all the time
too (as I did to your previous paragraph ["The only..."] at first,
incidentally). It can be hard to make things clear via mail posts as
you know.
I'm used to helping the odd beginner myself, btw ;-)
I only wrote on this list as there seemed to be no other "general"
forum here; the others looked too specialised for this.
Cheers,
Grant
