Being as how you aren't my instructor, I wasn't directing that comment at you. From what my instructor has said, he should be teaching software design not a Unix class. I could tell you all kinds of stories that our instructor has told us about Linux that are bogus. Anyway, sorry about offending you. Dallin

I'm likely to hunt you down and beat you senseless. (A more probable outcome is this: I'll fume, and then do absolutely nothing ;) =] I will admit I recently overheard a UVSC faculty member telling his class why Linux should be pronounced "LINE-ucks." Doh! He's creating an entire class of annoying people -- somebody STOP HIM! mrbyrd ____________________ BYU Unix Users Group http://uug.byu.edu/ ___________________________________________________________________ List Info: http://uug.byu.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/uug-list ____________________ BYU Unix Users Group http://uug.byu.edu/ ___________________________________________________________________ List Info: http://uug.byu.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/uug-list
