Well, i'd accept your objection, but i've just been noticing that i wasn't really clear: it's not for _my_ sake -- i know how to convert the scripts (at least after RTFMing). But getopt(1) used to be part of the system for a rather long time, and i'm under the impression that we're missing it since it has been part of the `tainted' sources from the original BSD. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
