Afterall, I had the world's best computer at home--a Macintosh! But during my first computer job, I had to do some hacking in FORTRAN on an IBM/43xx using nothing more than X-EDIT (a line editor from hell). That's when I learned to really like "vi", and UNIX didn't look all that bad after that experience. -john- -- =============================================================================== John A.
