I don't know if this is violating non-diclosure agreements ... (I was, at one time a contracter working in Austin on AIX... ) the first pass at 'df' didn't resolve '.' (stuff before 893?) Myself and other folks gritched at the developer until he added it... after my nagging him for a week to add the resolve '.' function (using arguments like, ''well, it workds everywhere else'') He added a function called 'resolve_dot_for_mcuddy' just to get me off of his back (Hi Dean!) I don't thing the function is called that any more though... peer code reviews and all ;-) --Mike Cuddy "...He's a UNIX hack and he's okay, he works all night and he sleeps all day..."
