you can work around any compatibility problems by setting

That should fix the script that would break.

Thanks. That does the trick.

This actually changed in FC5 btw.

Odd that I didn't notice. I've been running FC5 since it came out and
I know I've done sorts.

So, what happened to the sort command?


sort -f 4 -d ' ' foo
sort: open failed: 4: No such file or directory

That's going to break a lot of scripts.

It sank into the vortex. So I built another one. It sank into the vortex.
The third station burned down, fell over then sank into the vortex. The fourth
station just vanished. And the fifth station, THAT stayed!
