CDEF:a=b,c,+,d,+,e,+ CDEF:bs=b,UN,UNKN,b,IF CDEF:cs=c,UN,UNKN,c,IF CDEF:ds=d,UN,UNKN,d,IF AREA:bs STACK:cs STACK:ds or something like this ... cheers tobi *> Alan Lichty *> *> -- *> * To unsubscribe from the rrd-developers mailing list, send a message with the *> subject: unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] *> *> -- ______ __ _ /_ __/_ / / (_) Oetiker, Timelord & SysMgr @ EE-Dept ETH-Zurich / // _ \/ _ \/ / TEL: +41(0)1-6325286 FAX:...1517 ICQ: 10419518 /_/ \.__/_.__/_/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://ee-staff.ethz.ch/~oetiker -- * To unsubscribe from the rrd-developers mailing list, send a message with the subject: unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
