For an example, look on p. 2-17 of the 1.3 Enhancer pamphlet. I gave this a little more thought, and off the top of my head, I'm not sure you can make list put out exactly what you need. But if you combine it with emacs, a quick macro will do the job. Actually, emacs (microemacs, Dave Lawrence's version, 3.6 or later) alone will do the trick. If you don't know how to write the macro, give me a shout and I'll do it for you. Note that I redirected followups. -=- -- Jeff (martens@cis.ohio-state.edu) Expect a severe winter -- I saw a trailer full of snowmobiles heading south on US 23.
