Thanks to you and Randall. Unfortunately, neither of these worked (I was entering the various suggestions on one command-line, but that shouldn't really make a difference, should it?). In the event I just added the info by hand. I'll have to look into awk in more detail.
Which shell are you using? When you put the commands in a script, what shebang line do you use? If it looks like this: #!/bin/sh then you'll get BASH emulating the Bourne Shell, which does not have many of the feature of BASH, some of which are used in the various examples we gave. I recommend this: #!/bin/bash --norc The "--norc" speeds start-up and makes the script immune from interference from settings and definitions established or changed in your ~/.bashrc file.
