Now, all I have to do is add an option to date to output the day of the year zero based... :-) -John ps: Speaking of low memory, are there any known bugs when allocating extremely large amounts of memory? I have 768Meg of ram, 5 gig of swap: malloc tops out at 1gig and mmap(anon) tops out at 2 gig... I need to alloc 4 gig. The following are in the kernel config: # Increase the default maximum data size options MAXDSIZ="((__int64_t)5*1024*1024*1024)" options DFLDSIZ="((__int64_t)5*1024*1024*1024)" see: ~jwd/public_html/ds.c or: http://www.freebsd.org/~jwd/ds.c Probably something silly on my part.
