-----Original Message----- Sent: Tuesday, August 26, 2003 10:10 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L what got me for about 2 hours recently was the standard: tr [A-B] [a-b],(it just means make everything upper case, now lower cass, its a LOWER function in SQL) thats even in the oreilly korn shell book. no solaris has to get cute and make you do: tr [:upper:] {:lower:] what i mean by that is such things as monitoring I/O, etc...
