You're taking my initial response nova yourself.
Sorry, wasn't meant to be. Maybe I've not mellowed as much as I need. I'll nip off and steep myself in red wine after this email.
My suggestion was that the question being answered here were rather simple, which could easily have been solved, usually with an option to the said program, *had* one read the man page initially.
My comment was that if the right man page were that obvious, then Andrew would probably have done that. I'm not sure it would have been that clear. Hell, I still can get myself in a right muddle with a cocktail of su, xauth, ssh X forwarding and ssh-agent after all these years! Now we've both restated our positions, are you happy? Go on, give us a smile. I'm happy :) -- MJR/slef My Opinion Only and possibly not of any group I know. http://mjr.towers.org.uk/ gopher://g.towers.org.uk/ slef@jabber.at Creative copyleft computing services via http://www.ttllp.co.uk/
