FWIW: As I know you're a Delphian, I suggest looking in your Delphi's bin directory, which should also be on your PATH already. There's a handy little tool called grep.exe which will probably deliver the same functionality. I just did a quick test and it generally seems to work. You would have to escape special characters (e.g. the period and the slash) and the wildcard would have to be written as '.*' instead of just '*' (all without the quotes of course), though. IOW: your example would have to be written like this: cvs ls src | grep ".*\.c" Hope this helps. Oliver ---- ------------------ JID: ogiesen at jabber.org ICQ: 18777742 Y! : ogiesen
