Good to know. Being a unix guy I probably would have assumed case sensitivity. :)
What is regex??
Regular Expressions. A pain in the ass to learn but totally worth it.
Circuit names for ethernet device are DDD-N
DDCMP (serial lines), CI and DSSI devices are DD-N-M
Where D is a letter and N and M are digits.
Ok, so I see a trend here. All circuit names have a dash in them. That's how I was going to filter them out but I think I found a better way.
Thanks!!

With the common dash, check out the f$element( ) function in DCL. Very handy.
Apologies if someone already mentioned it. I jsut scanned through about 100 HECnet messages and I'm blurry.
