Number 2 worked good, but I 'm having problems getting it all to work
in one line.
I tried spam.spam which just takes args like spam.spam file1 file2
file3, etc.
I 've tried your number 2 piped into spam.spam, and spam.spam piped
into your number 2, neither worked. It works if I run your number 2
then copy and paste after spam.spam.
This will work for now, I 'd like it so that I could just run one
file... But right now don 't have much time.
Thanks for all the help
Thanks,
