I think you mean # echo 59 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness which is what I took him to mean, as well.Yes, that's what I meant.I don't understand why echo should be able to write a file that an editor cannot.Some editors like to rename the original file to "filename~" and then write out a new file "filename". This won't work in /proc. Paul.
I don't use *that* editor. I never have used that one. Interesting that one
can delete but not rename the file, even as owner. How is that accomplished?

I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
