Subject: Re: dirmc question
Jim, I don't know what goes on with my posts, but for some reason,
wherever I wrote an equal (=) sign, something somewhere tacked "3D" (the
ASCII hex code for '=') after it. I won't pretend to understand how
email
formats work, but I didn't put it there.
So wherever you see
xxx=3Dyyy
just read
xxx=yyy
i.e. instead of VEREXISTS=3DNOLIMIT, it should be VEREISTS=NOLIMIT
I hope this gets translated correctly, or it really won't make sense!

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.
