on a side note regarding shell - I just ran this from the message box:
put shell("man zip")
and got this text:
----------------------------(clip)--------------------------------
ZIP(1L)
ZIP(1L)
NNAAMMEE
zip - package and compress (archive) files

----------------------------(/clip)--------------------------------
what is the text encoding in the man pages? In terminal the doubled
characters show up as boldface.
