A quick clarification-- I really did mean the Unix here doesn't have 'man'... i.e. it has no help files to tell me how to avoid problems like long mail and odd disconnects. It's short in other areas too. Having 'more' is irrelevant, because I get over 100 pieces of mail a day, with maybe 1/4 of that vague enough subject-wise that I give it a quick read. Saving each and every piece so that I can 'more' it would be a drag, and i can't set my mail to 'more' letters because there is no documentation! (You try learning unix when you only have the "sun beginner's guide"!) So binaries are a hassle.. I thought that was what comp-binaries was for. ------------ Alex Antunes "the Waupelani Kid" 'cause that's where I live... antunes@astro.psu.edu Penn State Astronomy Dept. ------- "c'est la vie, c'est la guerre, c'est la pomme de terre" -------
