YEP! As follows locate something losely what your looking for | grep something more specific Means not much hides and doesn't take long to find it - oh and run the updatedb from time to time :), Most "corporate" focused find file progries bit the big one to say the least (seems most l-users prefer this because the think it "thinks for them"?). Anyway find-utils is much easier AFAIC, faster and only works when executed. Beagle (aka kerry?) such cycles endlessly and ain't all the much more useful. Just my $0.02. Cheers, Curtis. - -- Spammers Beware: Trespassers will be shot, survivors will be shot again! Like the song say: "Everything's 'Zen'...
