How does that make sense? `file` cannot possibly understand the semantics of files at that level, at least not without executing them. And that's exactly what you _don't_ want to do when you're using `file` ... The file _is_ a /bin/sh executable. You're just having that /bin/sh executable run something else -- how could `file` figure that out without a ridiculously complicated set of rules that rise to the level of a sh interpreter -- thereby, defeating the purpose? -- Erik Max Francis && [EMAIL PROTECTED] && http://www.alcyone.com/max/ San Jose, CA, USA && 37 20 N 121 53 W && AIM erikmaxfrancis Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly. -- Robert F.
