I need to process a string like perform_act does it... and it's using a char *variable string. But the string I wanty to process is coming from a char variable[MAX_INPUT_LENGTH] string, and whenever I use strcpy or any opther way to get the one into the other, it crashes when it tries to manupilate that variable. This is what I got: char command[MAX_INPUT_LENGTH] char *cmdd; I wanna make cmdd = command so I can process the cmdd variable in exactly the same way perform_act does (looking for $? strings, like $n and $N). The problem is, like I said before... the way perform_act does it, it needs a char *, but the string I want to process is in the variable[xx] format. Is there a way to converty one from the other? If I used strcpy or even sprintf(cmdd, "%s", command) it crashes the first time I try to use the cmdd variable in any way. Any help out there? Thanks. Hades of Ebon Mists
