Hi Jim,
I'm not sure whether it's a school assignment or not it was given to me by a friend of mine. I have limited knowledge about UNIX & she has limited knowledge about Java. We traded off. I think she digged deep in her desk for this assignment. I gave her a fairly easy one. I tested part of the script and it worked, can't get any further than that. sorry if you felt like I breached the agreement. I'm still not sure wheter it's a school assignment or not. I'll ask her.
