Pierfrancesco,

Interesting. I've never played with Perl.

The statement (comment?) "#set the label" caught my eye. It doesn't set the text
string, correct?

73, Mike

Whoever wrote the K3 Memory Editor has the secret to setting the label. Maybe they'd
be willing to share it with one of the linux programmers?

Wayne? Dick?

If programming tickles your fancy in any way, Perl is a good place to
start.  It's very forgiving of various logic methods and it has a large
community around it.  It has been famously referred to "as the duct tape
that holds the Internet together" although in recent years other
languages and methods have gained popularity.

It appears as though it does from glancing through the script where the
word "label" appears.  It looks to be a clever way of accessing that
information via known commands and button actions.

That's a comment (anything after a # is a comment in perl, up to end of
line).
It's placeholder for me to remember where to put a command to write the
label if/when a way to do so will ever get published.

Programming earned me a good living for a lot of years. My web needs have always been
met with vbscript and javascript. I'd hate to risk cracking the old brain with a new
(to me) language. ;-)
