That is 200% the problem, its so deeply buried you cannot find it, and
asking how on a mailing list is like searching for a gold ring in a
tijuana pan shop. Sometimes its 3 or 4 days of fine tuning my questions

But that info is NOT plainly stated in those man pages. It may be there,
but its buried in drivel that does not often offer an example.
Take care and stay well Felix.
