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.
