Hello, the missing of a single excample inside the "cut"-man-page could only be solved by consulting an old unix-man-page found in the web.
I like man-pages but they are useless without a single excample if you are new to a command.... e.g. how to use "cut" to extract columns 1 and 5 of /etc/passwd cut -d: -f1,5 /etc/passwd That simple excample is worth a dozen lines of parameter explanations. When I "know where the rabit runs to" I could refine the stuff to my special needs consulting the rest of the man-page. That method is very effective and gives instant satisfaction :) best regards Jan Mentzel _______________________________________________ Bug-textutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-textutils
