Are you just going to iterate over the values? Or will you have to revisit some of them? If you're just going to iterate, can we produce strings suitable for "for val in `svcprop ...`" or "set -- `svcprop ...`"? If you have to revisit them, how difficult would it be to produce output which a shell can stuff into an array, as Mike suggested? David
