Hi Wonko, you're right. echo simply does nothing. However I'm not able to execute everything, specially I would like to inform users with something like zenity but it doesn't work... but I've found an interesting thread on the forum that might help. Thanks for your help! Davide -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
