Many times, actually. And on different days, too. :) I guess I just don't
understand what is meant by "map" in this context.

My Unix programming "bible" (POSIX Programmer's Guide) does not even
mention it. I still consider myself a Unix newbie--some of its concepts
are very hard to grasp. I could use a good introductory text, but our
local college library has very little on Unix (this is a small town in
the middle of nowhere). I spent many years programming for MS DOS and
Windows. Unix is a whole new ball game to me. So, please, bear with me.
