Once you have the conversions understood (a good thing to know) consider exploring more stuff in the packages. Let me point you to OptionParser and GetOptLong. They both provide some very useful command line parsing capabilities. It takes a little experimentation to really understand what's happening but well worth it in my opinion. -dwh- --=-jrIMYx9zoe+hU6tPciQ8--
