As groups come and go I'm sure we all have more directories than real news. It would be nice to get a printout of what directories I could remove. Thanks, Bill ...... ---------------------------------------------------------- -- Bill Lewandowski LORAL Western Development Labs (408) 473-4362 Internet: wrl@wdl1.wdl.fac.com FAX: (408) 473-7926 UUCP: wdl1!wrl
