Gaaacck! Sputter... Mutter... No wonder I spent 10 minutes trying
to figure out what I was typing wrong since I knew darned well it
worked the last time I fooled with it, using the keywords on and
off instead of the numerical. Mt needs more informative error
messages thats for sure. I apparently didn't have presence of mind
enough to check the manpage. Me Dumb!
Thanks Jean-Louis.
