Jacquie – Spacing is critical in a number of things on the Amiga. Entering the line as you typed it in your message probably gave the computer a fit. <grin> The proper line is: DIR >DF1:NewJR DF0: Opt A DIR is obviously the directory command, the >DF1:NewJR is the redirection telling the Amiga to put the output from the directory into a file on DF1: called NewJR. DF0: is the device from which we want the directory, and Opt A tells the Directory command to give a full listing of whatever it finds on DF0:. I was also looking at the script a little earlier today. I have no idea what the author was doing in simply deleting the Shell and it's icon. The savings in disk space realized by deleting the shell is trivial. If you want to, I'll show you how to put the shell back in the JRCOMM diskette. (not very hard at all.) I've got no idea where the icons went. I will need to see the directory to figure out where the script failed. Bill, K3OZM
