aarghh.. yes. bloody obvious. it's a huge fat script.

That's another RH annoyance. Why do they have such a love for huge
long obfuscated scripts which source variables and functions from
other obscure scripts which source ...

eg, look at the new rhs-printfilters which replaces nenscript from
RH5.x. The old lpd filter with nenscript was short and sweat, the new
RH6 filters are script nightmares.

havn't RH heard of KISS?
  
thanks for the answer ray.
