Doesn't it matter which shell I'm running? (tcsh)  But the script looks
seriously cool, thanks!

I just did some Google and AltaVista searches for mvm mvm() and mkdir and
unix... Didn't find anything.  Which manpage concerns mvm??

Adam, I would like to ask you not to address me in such a manner.

If you are recommending I keep my "I wishes" and "this shoulds" off the
tail ends of my posts, then I will gladly make an effort to do so.  Perhaps
I'll join an additional maillist about the development and evolution of
unix or freebsd in general.  And of course that book sounds quite good :)
