Thank you Rusty, Matt, Eric, (and all)!
I *luv* this PLUG group!
Rusty: Adding that 'hashbang' line solved the problem
and now it works perfectly.
Eric, while 'qhid' and 'q-hid' were inconsistent in
my original message, I actually did have those sync'd
in my filename and code-script.
Matt: thanks for the tip re -i replacing -y
What is the purpose of that change?
Also, how can I modify the script so that "Search word(s)"
and "Here are the first results" can be on the same line?
Thanks again to all.
Joe
