Since I cannot simply tell Mozilla/Seamonkey/Thunderbird to insert the result of running uptime, I can hardly tell it to execute "read sigline".
The end result must be a file, and I do not know if a named pipe qualifies as a file in mozilla's language. If it does, then I can just insert "sig" as the signature file, but I am not prepared to go through the exercise. I will leave that to Hylton, if he is interested. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
