Thanks.
I'm struggling with the unix syntax, so your assistance is a great help ! Got some books from O'Reilly coming soon, hopefully they will help as well.

hi jumbo,

i think with books its ok.. it all looks too easy with books...
it takes some time, but if u get the hang of man pages on unix its gr8 programming like that..

since u r spending on getting books i thought i might put in my little suggestion...

afaik,
shail
