I couldn't find that string in the shell (esh), echo.c, ps.c, or sleep.c . Although I didn't try real hard, I couldn't get the problem to repeat. Anybody got any ideas?? {shell=esh, system=system V, mach=vax 11/780} while true do echo `ps -el|grep -c '^....R'` " \c" sleep 1 done =-=-=-=-=-= Stan King phone: 201-386-7433 Bell Labs, Whippany, NJ Cornet: 8+232-7433 room 2A-111 uucp: clyde!stan
