Great. > By the way, I launched gcmc accidentally with no input, and it seemed > to hang.

Running gcmc with no file as input will read input from stdin (the command-line) as in good unix tradition. If you do not specify an output file (-o option) then all output is written to stdout. This is done so you can form command-chains with pipes on the command-line. The behavior is described in the man-page (http://www.vagrearg.org/content/gcmc-man). You can terminate with ^C (break) or ^D, which is EOF on *nix systems (or, if using windows, ^Z to indicate EOF). -- Greetings Bertho (disclaimers are disclaimed) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sponsored by Intel(R) XDK Develop, test and display web and hybrid apps with a single code base.
