Started using LINUX for analysis of my thesis as windows just couldn't cut the data mangling needed. There is something pure about being able to crunch directories full of files and create a clean concise summary to be fed into SYSTAT when the rest of the lab was struggling to get it done with excel macros. Started off with Red Hat 4.1 and moved to debian::progeny this spring when i decided to make the windows half of my box run under VMWare. -dan -- o- o o o- ---------------------------------o--------------------------------- \ O -o ><> o ><> WebRat \X\/ Dan Sabath ><> ____o ><> Shrewsbury X [EMAIL PROTECTED] ><> (_/\_) ><> Renaissance Faire / \ www.concolor.org ==0) www.shrewfaire.com / \ www.peak.org/~kiyose www.shrewfaire.com/SHOH
