Blegh, I should be getting the book tomorrow, although it's a chrismas present so it'll probably be taken away as soon as I get it :) Sounds like I'm not only going to wish for a find function (come on, who hasn't spent 0.1s looking for the / or ^F button when they're reading a book? :), but a copy of patch(1) for the book. Do O'Reilly do any form of, um, book upgrade program, by any chance? :) -- Thomas 'Freaky' Hurst - freaky@aagh.net - http://www.aagh.net/
