aha! very good work. the 'man readline' suggestion i got produced 'no manual entry' but 'dpkg -S readline' showed php and python packages (not germane) and the libreadline4 package you mentioned. is it just me or is this a BIZARRE path to have to travel in order to find some documentation? exim.conf has its own manpage, as do several others... ah, well. i hate 'info' -- but most appreciate of the help, thanks! -- http://groups.yahoo.com/group/newbieDoc -- next week's newbie needs your brain: document your experience today!
