I update lists with GET/LSVPUT. I check lists (dozens of times a day) using a RR link to LISTSERV's 191. I have execs to search for users, etc. If I couldn't "see" the actual lists it would be nice to add some utility commands to search a list for all occurences (well - maybe any file) of a string and display the results... Or maybe have a "view" utility that could look at the list via a RR link... But then, I am not sure I understand the proposal... (I have been off of LSTSRV-L for a while). Marty
