Note that if you are trying to extract multiple matches from lines using eg '-o', you will get newlines between each of the matches reported. If you are seeing an '@' character, check that it isn't actually '^@', which would indicate a null character in the source file. regards, Glenn -- pgp: 833A 67F6 1966 EF5F 7AF1 DFF6 75B7 5621 6D65 6D65 _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
