Many thanks! Yes, it works.

If I start at the GNU home page http://www.gnu.org/
How do I find the FAQs there? 
There is no clear link to FAQ or 'coreutils' under the 'Software' header 
in the menu on the right. 
Is there a main FAQ page that lead to the FAQs of the different packages?


Best wishes,

Jos.
