  This is not a comp.unix.wizards question.

  Not only is it not a wizards question, but it's answered in the monthly
Frequently Asked Questions posting in comp.unix.questions (which is where this
question should have been posted in the first place).  Question number 26.

  If the comp.unix.questions FAQ has expired at your site, you can either wait
until it is posted again, or send me E-mail and I'll send it to you.

  And rather than just reading the one question in the FAQ that answers this
particular question it would probably be a good idea for you to scan the whole
thing briefly before posting any additional questions to the net.
