Well, I think it's a personal code style problem. I'd like to write comments for a new line. Maybe 'sed "s: ;.*::g" filename' is better. Note there should be a space before ";" in case you are using a "#;" as dismich said. But I think we must design a perfectly safe method. Anyway, I think it's a big deal now. :-) To dismich: I don't know there's a "#;" now. Thanks for warning. And I'd like to know what the "#;" means. :-) -- GNU Powered it GPL Protected it GOD Blessed it HFG - NalaGinrut
