Re: source code I/O troubles

[gronk]

Hi, thanks for responding. I'm currently aiming to modify the output for an 
alternate bash terminal that I probably won't use lol. To keep it simple, for 
now all I want to do is keep count of the commands run, and print that number 
above the output of the command run.

Thanks for all your help
