Each person posting like this is *requiring* me to scroll down to find the reply. There are a lot of emails on this list and it is very helpful when we keep the quotes to a minimum. One person's effort to keep the netiquette norms (I won't say rules) saves a lot of time for everyone reading them. I found the reminder about the thread change helpful as I don't always do it and did not in this case. james kilty http://www.kilty.demon.co.uk -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/linux_adm/list-faq.html
