Thank you space_monk. I had thought of using map, but decided against it. In reading this reply to a previous post of mine Re: Efficiency of map vs. more verbose basic/fundamental code it is suggested that map is better used to create a new list based on modified elements of a previous one, rather than in the printing of a list. I will definitely look into a heredoc for the title, though. I like the way you did that. Thank you again for your suggestions.
