Chris, 

Thanks for your reply.  Those are all sources I'm aware of.  Also, I've been 
using FreeBSD since 1998, running different web servers and such.  I suppose 
I should have been a little more specific.  What, specifically, do you find 
you need to use these commands for?  What kinds of text files?  Log files?  
I'm not sure.

Thanks again for your reply.
