I have actually been bored enough to read the bash man pages and the bash
shell scripting HOW TO. (Well the last one was a bit of a work requirement).
At first I thought I had done some weird vi command (not hard, the command
set is probably bigger than vi !!!). It wasn't until I did some debugging (I
had a thought for more than 30 secs) that I realised what I had done. The
being in vi at the time kinda threw me at first.

Like I said I save files using ZZ (shift zz) all the time and this is the
first time that I have ever done that typo !!!!
