If you want to insert a really long comment block: : << IMPORTANT mumble bla bla bla ... IMPORTANT You can pretty much put anything you want between the: : << IMPORTANT and IMPORTANT tags. You don't have to use "IMPORTANT" either. It works with Bash; however, I am unsure of how it works with other shells. Unless you have a really long comment block, I think the "#" syntax is easier to use. Plus, I don't know if it would even work in an "rc" file. -- Jerry ✌ [email protected] Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored.
