The point of my posting was this -- The shell script was posted in
plain ASCII text *A*N*D* also in pointless html-format. Again I will
say that there is no need to send html-format mail to this list.
I see more html-format mail in the digest of this list than I see on
any other listserv to which I am subscribed.
