Erm, that problem was a problem at my end at first, because I didn't like the mktemp -u approach you chose, because of hopefully understandable reasons. It would still had been a race condition, just a very limited one. So I just removed the -u switch but didn't notice the error message that mkfifo wasn't able to create the fifo - and thus in the end the rest failed obviously. As I was going a different path anyway, that small understanding problem with your approach wasn't a big problem. Sorry for the confusion. :) So long! :) Rhonda -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
