Don't worry re VAH : he writes like that, but there's no ill-will & often he has something useful to say. Most of the time, Gentoo-User is polite + intelligent & a good source of Linux education. In this case, as someone else pointed out, VAH calls your idea "stupid", which may be an exaggeration, but he does offer an explanation. At the risk of further antagonising you (smile): (1) don't top-post ! (2) please use your real name. -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
