   but what on earth is the '0' doing at the end of the output statement? i
   tried both with and without it, and both work. is it a typo, or does it mean
   something?

It's a typo.  It shouldn't be there.  Ger's parser would yell, mine
isn't that smart.


   ps: am i doing it right by clicking on 'reply to all' to answer to the list?

If you want the whole list to see it, it is.
