I'm tempted to say "yes." but you are probably right that the more correct answer is "no." But it certainly is NOT intuitive currently. The comments in the various file short of the man page all say "any file" and to end a script file in .sh seems like a very natural thing to do. is there any way, a debconf option or something, to make this configurable? luke -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
