To those individuals: thank you again!) I will not be posting to or reading news.newusers.questions anymore. This may not be considered a great loss to anyone; it is certainly no loss to me. In the past week, I have been flamed unnecessarily, both through net mail and through the news system, for asking what I considered a very valid question, and which no one seems to have a specific answer for. If I cannot get a rational answer to a simple question, why bother asking? (Notice that, so certain UNIX gods who get pissed off at spendthrift undergrads won't throw a gear, I am using a VERY short signature.) -- Mark A. Robinson
