Someone really should do these things *right* and put them in a port. To see what's wrong with Duke's script, consider the following sequence: $ rm My_Precious_File <realize you weren't where you thought you were, so...> $ cd old $ rm My_Precious_File And you can no longer recover the current version of My_Precious_File. If you do this on Windows, you wind up with two copies of My_Precious_File, and it's not obvious which is which. <mike -- Mike Meyer <mwm@mired.org> http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
