Ahhhh, I'll install it but make sure my /etc/ backup is up to date. ;-) I'll likely just read the man page, see what it does etc and maybe use it for info purposes. Sort of like euse -i does. It doesn't' change anything, just spits out info, usually it doesn't help much but anyway. lol Wonder why it is not being kept up to date. Maintainer no longer interested in it, other tools took its place??? Dale :-) :-) P. S. Back from being a pin cushion.
