Please, you need a basic training in Unix programming. That's beyond what could be given you in Usenet. You should either know how to use man pages (but this assumes you know at least the language C), or you should pick a good book on this. (``Programming in the UNIX environment'' -- was it by Stevens? Dunno, i haven't learned it by books, but i'm certain it took me more than a week to learn Unix programming.) In case you wanna pick the man page route, type: man 2 chdir at the prompt. The `2' is the section number from the manual, the above is often refered to as ``chdir(2)'', i.e. the section number is written in paren's. -- J"org Wunsch Unix support engineer joerg_wunsch@interface-business.de http://www.interface-business.de/~j
