Eh? I was under the impression pine had simply been told to do a |cat <sig FIFO> and dump it in the editor. If that's the case, then use simple Perl that speaks your protocol rather than cat(1). If pine's doing something more complicated than that[1], then never mind. -- gabriel rosenkoetter gr@eclipsed.net [1] Why in the world *would* it be?
