I asked a similar question last year, in the hope of finding a tiny utility through which to pipe grep output. I was offered an Awk recipe, but I couldn't get it to work at the time. I'm still looking for an answer, and Google isn't helping me. Nor is my Bash Cookbook from O'Reilly. -- Rgds Peter -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
