This is the kind of stuff that really shows the power of Linux/UNIX and the command-line. Some of the stuff I'm doing would be difficult/impossible to do in a GUI. And since a lot of it is bleading-edge and just-recently developed, most of it isn't documented yet. Makes it really hard for newcomers to realize the capabilities and the potential of Linux. I will try and schedule this topic for a future meeting. -- Clay
