Yes of course one can do like that, but that's not as fun ;-) (nor do you
learn as much from it).

There's no need to go to any trouble. For those who might be interested
I've got 24 answers already (43 was the final total last year). Hmm... make
that 23, one person sent me answers twice ;-)

The max in UN*X is 100, IIRC from a book I read last night - I couldn't
find that part today (over 400 pages and not well structured).
I think Linux has 256, but I know there's plenty of people who knows more
