Actually I had forgotten about the ! (not true (or better yet 
not >= 1)) and the baby 'and's  -- in the back of my mind I guess 
they were very low on the precedence list and therefore !worthy 
(OK, bad pun.)  I'll try out the changes in the real code.

The && usage was really weirding me out and I did want to avoid a 
lot if-then-else, etc.  The basics are good for writing 
portable/readable/maintainable code -- but writing 4 lines where 1 
makes sense is so, I dunno, COBOL-like ?!?

Thx Steve!

PS - That $process variable should have been called $total_lines, 
Steve. Sorry :)
PPS - 4U who R 2Young to know about COmmon Business Oriented 
Language -- consider yerself Lucky  :)
