perl -e 'open(FILE, "/usr/bin/man ssh | "); while(<FILE>) { print if /SYNOPSIS/ }'
(testing)%perl -e 'open(FILE, "/usr/bin/man ssh | "); while(<FILE>) { print if /SYNOPSIS/ }'
(testing)%
well see that doesn't work for me... I'm using hyperterminal in winNT dunno if that is why or not. I just get no output from the above cmd.
