(Please edit your lines before sending.) Why is the size a problem? Does it take too long time to load grep? I always thought it was lying somewhere ready in memory once loaded. -- Jon Haugsand, [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.norges-bank.no -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
