But >what's the point? Well, if someone was curious about who actually posted anonymously, all they would have to do is type 'list' and get a list of the last 20 or so callers. In this list is the time those people called. Even if you could remove the time stamp from the caller display, anonymous messages would have time stamps really close to the time of other, non-anonymous posts from the same user. So, that doesn't completely solve the problem either. Is there a way to modify the output of the 'LIST' command, without the source code? I don't remember seeing anything about it in the static file. -- Darren Loher Data Communications darren@sol.acs.unt.edu University of North Texas darren@elecafe.dent.tx.us "A bar of soap just flew through my window!"
