Actually, to be honest, no :-). Thanks for the pointer and I have commented my .bashrc file to remind me when I eventually do get around to upgrading. Not that it will bother me personally because I seldom run into DOS style files and never shell scripts. - I was just curious and hoping to learn something. It's no wonder I couldn't find the ignrc option - it doesn't exist in my version. :-) Also, as per Larry Hall, it hurls on linux, solaris and I didn't try any others. Thanks again.
