Simply calculate prime factors. ;-) You can do this in TeX, too... ;-) ;-) Well. What i want to say: i don't use Rexx, if perfomance is a question. But it took only 40 lines to write a `program' that recursively searches my directories and shows me how much is occupied by the files in them. And my HD speed is still the limiting factor. -- - Thomas greve@rs1.thch.uni-bonn.de unt145@dbnrhrz1
