It's pretty pointless to use cat $file | sed 's/.../' because sed can open files perfectly well: sed 's/.../' $file You should clean up the temp files in exit_nicely(), because if someone or something aborts initdb in the middle, then the trap will at least have a better chance to remove the files. Actually, I doubt that it's safe and/or polite to write temporary files in the current directory. If you want to see a better way to handle temporary files in shell scripts, look in configure near occurences of 'mktemp'. > As I'm not great a patch-making, I've also attached the completed > postgresql.conf.sample for reference. Use diff -c instead of plain diff and put the old file first and the new file second. -- Peter Eisentraut [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
