Execute thinks that < and > are supposed to be used around the value passed to a .key , so when it encounters your redirection (using < again), it gives you an error. The .bra and .ket commands were put in to allow you to specify your OWN character to use with .keys... most people seem to like { and }. /**************************************************************** * All of the above copyright by the below. * * Bill Cavanaugh uunet!tronsbox!bleys * * "A language is a dialect with an army and a navy." * ****************************************************************/
