But my point was that in a macro, you have control over the case; if you stack stuff, you're making assumptions about case translation. I wouldn't write: 'command change /this/that/*' in a macro if I meant to change THIS to THAT; your technique allows/encourages such sloppiness if you're assuming CASE U, because stuff will get uppercased when it falls out of the stack. Yes, the subcommand above will do the same in CASE U, but it seems clearer to me that it's wrong. Maybe this is just me... -- .phsiii Phil Smith III [email protected] Voltage Security, Inc. www.voltage.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
