     I mean "at any side".

     "by" and "wo" is too ugly and when script written then there may be
full syntax used. But I ask about sides: see example above.

     Full URL, plz.

     Which? I mean, which problems?

     No, but I meet case when my addressee was required to change script
(written under MS-DOS DEBUG) because they have DR-DOS DEBUG.

PS: Matthias, do you will run my script which I already send to you? :)
