David is absolutely correct. The answers are almost always available in man pages or on the net somewhere. I just get lazy knowing that I can pop a question in here and get an answer off the top of someone's head within minutes, sometimes.
In my original request that began this thread, I did confess my lazyness. It was such an obvious question I would not have been able to claim that I had researched and failed to find the answer. Better to confess lazyness then look a fool, I say.
I did get an answer and the help I sought. PLUG comes through even for lazy folk!
