By giving those characters to rrdtool, not to bash. This is a simple case of escaping characters from bash. It also has nothing to do with rrdtool. Try surrounding the line with single or double quotes. Also make sure you learn why this would help and when it is necessary. There's plenty of information to be found, in the bash manual, on internet, or in a book about shell programming perhaps. -- Alex van den Bogaerdt http://www.vandenbogaerdt.nl/rrdtool/ -- Unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Help mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archive http://lists.ee.ethz.ch/rrd-users WebAdmin http://lists.ee.ethz.ch/lsg2.cgi
