   Hey All!   
      
   Just for fun I thought I'd liberate one of my posts in a different echo   
   that got posted on a publically accessable web site and repost it here.   
   This was accomplished from the commandline and the resulting post   
   follows this message. Here is a cut and paste of the commands used;   
      
   --------- gpm cut `n paste starts   
   tearline="$(bash --version | head -1)"   
      
   lynx -dump \   
   http://fidonet.ozzmosis.com/echomail.php/linux/cabd9822d24edfc6.html \   
   | sed -n '/ From:/,/ * Origin:/p' > /tmp/liberation.tmp   
      
   from=$(grep "^ From:" /tmp/liberation.tmp | cut -f2 -d :)   
   to=$(grep "^ To:" /tmp/liberation.tmp | cut -f2 -d :)   
   subject=$(grep -n "^ Subject:" /tmp/liberation.tmp | cut -f2 -d :)   
      
   SOM=$(($(grep -n "^ Subject:" /tmp/liberation.tmp | cut -f1 -d :)+2))   
   EOM=$(($(grep -n "^---" /tmp/liberation.tmp | cut -f1 -d :)-1))   
      
   sed -i -n "${SOM},${EOM}p" /tmp/liberation.tmp   
      
   hpt post -nt "$to" \   
    -nf "$from" \   
    -s "$subject" \   
    -e "tuxpower" \   
    -z "$tearline" \   
    -f loc k/s \   
    -d /tmp/liberation.tmp   
      
   --------- gpm cut `n paste ends   
      
   I did this on the new wireless network here with a ssh login from the   
   workstation to the Atom. I doubt I'll script the above but it was fun   
   to do once as I feel I got some payback. :::evil grin:::   
      
   Life is good,   
   Maurice
