Actually, ".sh" does not appear to be a definitive declaration of the scripting language. However, if you deemed that to be a definitive declaration for the scripting language the OP was using, then fine. In any case, as I previously posted, it was left up to the OP to decide if the proposed solution was suitable for their needs. After reading all of the babble concerning what should be a relatively easy operation, perhaps the OP might want to consider switching to Bash. -- Jerry ✌ FreeBSD.user@seibercom.net Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored.
