I hadn't realised that ksh was faster, but even with ksh (ksh 93 any way), I/Os are painfully slow. If I need to do a lot of I/O and cut/awk/sed and friends can't help, that's when I start using python (or perl a few years back). -- http://yves.zioup.com gpg: 4096R/32B0F416 _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list [email protected] https://lists.lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
