No, the '-l' breaks it as you noticed. I meant to write:

"If you're using Red Hat 6.1 or 6.2 try:"
                         ^^^^^^^^^^

haven't tested it under other versions. Should get output looking like:


FileRunner                FileRunner-2.5.tar.gz
FileRunner                FileRunner.spec
FileRunner                filerunner.wmconfig
glut                      /usr/doc/glut-3.6-1
glut                      /usr/doc/glut-3.6-1/CHANGES
glut                      /usr/doc/glut-3.6-1/FAQ.glut
glut                      /usr/doc/glut-3.6-1/Portability.txt

etc without the piped grep.


cheers,

Dave.
