I think that we're talking about different things lol.
I'm talking about what Unix does with the input. for example, when linux echoes you username (echoing username's password) I've found out, the 'username' is echoed in variable form. That whole string is concatenated.
Anyway, I don't think that you and I are getting anywhere here Perderabo. Thanks for the help anyway.
