i'm reading LDD3 and i can see the prototype for the "start" method for a seq_file: void* start(struct seq_file *sfile, loff_t *pos) ; does that offset position always start at zero for a seq_file? everything suggests it does, but the book doesn't come right out and say it. and if it doesn't, how as a programmer could you open a seq_file to start at some other offset? thanks. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
