    So does the first one contain any newlines at all, or did you just line wrap it for posting?

    And when you say "script", are you considering sed/awk/perl as being suitable candidates?
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
