Hi,
Thank you very much for the good advices.
Now, to a question more related to linux.
I wrote this small script to get a more pleasing output from
bidiv:
#!/bin/sh
case $# in
        0)echo "Use: $0 file_name width additional_options";;
        1)echo "Use: $0 file_name width additional_options";;
        *) Z1=$1; Z2=$2; shift 2; Z3=`expr $Z2 + 10`; Z4=`expr $Z3; + 9`; cat 
$Z1 | sed 'G' | fmt -w $Z2 | bidiv -j -w $Z3 | sed -e :a -e "s/^.\{1,$Z4\}$/ 
&/;ta" | sed '/^$/d'  $*;;
esac

It does what it is supposed to do, but issues every time the
following error message:
/home/avraham/scripts/newbidiv: line 1: +: command not found

I see no + over there. I entered this line in the script in Vim through
:r ! head -1 some-other-script
(because, otherwise, from time to time I enter !# instead of #!)
and /bin/sh is indeed a link to bash.
I do not receive this error message with any other of my scripts.
Any ideas ?

Thanks, Avraham
