Thanks Willie. That worked great. I wonder if someone needs to tell the programmer for portage that kwrite doesn't like those *** in there at all? Should I file it as a bug? I mean, kwrite is all I use unless the GUI is borked and I have to use CL. Then I use nano. Sorry. :-( Thanks again. Dale :-) :-) :-) :-) -- www.myspace.com/dalek1967
