   Yes and no.  Until recently I haven't done much in the way of   
   distributing or posting scripts.  It used to be more about posting   
   snippets and before that more about actual c code but that was a long   
   time ago when I actually needed to write c code.   
      
   The latest attraction to bash scripts has more to do with extremely   
   minimalized enviroments where things like perl are not an option.

   I am looking forward to it.

   Understood.  However I'd like to ensure that any scripts I plan to write   
   will run on ttylinux where perl isn't part of the enviroment, or at   
   least not at this point in time.  Also I have yet to see any of them   
   encorporated as written in any distributed form so I haven't bothered   
   with copylefts, credits, licences, etc. lately.  That may have to change   
   and it probably will if and when it matters.   
      
    RC> same kind of thing declaring the scripts as being public domain...   
      
   I believe perl falls under the "Artistic Licence 2.0" which is an   
   officially recognized Opensource licence.  No matter since at the moment   
   I am sticking as close to what is possible on systems where perl is not   
   an option, not to suggest I have anything against perl whatsoever but   
   instead just working within the limits imposed by some of the targetted   
   systems/devices/whatever.  If it weren't for bash I probably wouldn't   
   bother at all.  ;-)   
      
   Now that you bring up perl, I've been toying with the idea of mixed   
   bash/perl for Fido-ish activities relating to outbound from this point.   
   I can see where perl's pack function called up from a bash script would   
   be handy to achieve that goal, if indeed it actually is a goal.  It   
   definetly could be a goal.   
      
   Life is good,   
   Maurice
