that sort of functionality is built into most of the shells (bash, tcsh, zsh). unfortunately, there isn't enough space on the install floppies for a full-featured shell....there was only enough room for the tiny ash shell, which doesn't have command line history or filename completion etc. in other words, it'll be there after you've got through the install. > PS.....I am having trouble getting past the installation floppy boot > stage so even though a program like this might be included in a future > package install I haven't reached that stage yet. i don't know if there's any extension program to do it. probably not because there's no real need for one since it's built into the shell. craig -- craig sanders networking consultant Available for casual or contract temporary autonomous zone system administration tasks. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
