Could I have my second "l" back in "Malcolm" please? When I was doing mainly Perl development, all the "l"s that ever vanished from my name always seemed to end up as gratuitous additions to Randal's name (people tended to write "Randall Schwartz" instead of "Randal"). Now that I'm mostly doing Linux and VM stuff there must be someone else who's built up a whole stock of extra "l"s by now :-) ObLogger: Don't try using "logger" with early versions of Digital UNIX/Tru64 UNIX/OSF/1/RIP: there was a bug whereby it ignored the facility and priority arguments and always sent its output as a system-wide emergency message to the terminal of every single logged-in user.
