    Can you look at the patch that I threw together? I am 50% confident
    that the code does what it's supposed to do. My problem is that I'm
    confident that the code is also crap. How would I do it better than
    this? Declaring character arrays bigger than what I know they will be
    is the only way I know (AND use sizeof() to limit overruns). What
    other preferred method exists? I can't wait to see what a patch of
    yours looks like.

    >btw, sorry for the late... I saw your email but forgot to reply :(

    Being busy is part of the Linux culture methinks :)
