It doesn't seems to be... In the manual I've read that each word is checked to see if it starts with an unquoted '~', is that quoted inside a (...) expression? Thanks a lot for your help :) Raúl Núñez de Arenas Coronado -- Linux Registered User 88736 http://www.pleyades.net & http://raul.pleyades.net/
