Hi,

just a nit:

You should always put double-quotes arount the $@, otherwise the shell does 
IFS-splitting on the arguments. Probably not that important in this case, but 
since this creates nasty quoting problems in general, post "good code" for 
the archive.

Sincerely
Philipp

PS: I know there are broken shell, which don't handle "$@" correct, but hey, 
they're broken anyway.
