What actually happened is that after you copied and pasted the script into a new file the special meaning of the escape code that appears as ^[ was stripped off. It became literally a ^ followed by [, whereas in the script this sequence was created by typing Ctrl-V followed by Ctrl-[. I forgot to take this little nuisance into account, when I was posting the code to the list. \033 will work fine as well as downloading the script from here <http://www.weizmann.ac.il/~michaelg/dsmact.pl.gz>. If you download it, it should be intact. -- Warm regards, Michael Green
