I've gone and looked at the first post,and yes it does seem easier to understand to me... though I think that is both your detailed explanation and your kind tutoring.
I have one other question, of course...
Re:The French quotes around the addresses of the final command-- Are they used like parenthesis in a mathematical equation to designate a single process or set to run as a unit separately --- and therefore used all of the time, or are you using them for demonstration purposes?
I won't have time to try this until later, but will let you know how it goes.
Thank you so much dpierron. I can't say enough how much I apprieciate your willingness to take the time to explain things.
ps BTW... After all of this work, I'm thinking about trying this,
http://www.pogoplug.com/ when the new version is released. I'm sure that all of your good tutoring will be helpful for that as well.
