FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE rsync-2.6.9 from the man page: rsync uses the GNU long options package. rsync seems to ignore the [gnu] special "--" option, used to delimit options from arguments. i'd like to have this functionality... any suggestions? thanks... -- ...atom ________________________ http://atom.smasher.org/ 762A 3B98 A3C3 96C9 C6B7 582A B88D 52E4 D9F5 7808 ------------------------------------------------- "Never has our ability to shield our affairs from prying eyes been at such a low ebb. The availability and use of secure encryption may offer an opportunity to reclaim some portion of the privacy we have lost. Government efforts to control encryption thus may well implicate not only the First Amendment rights of cryptographers intent on pushing the boundaries of their science, but also the constitutional rights of each of us as potential recipients of encryption's bounty." -- US Appeals Court Judge Betty Fletcher
