You forgot the "." off the end of the command.
Can you just compare your output with mine and see if you see any
differences? Something is going screwy with blank lines when you paste it
into a mail message, which makes it impossible for me to check. Just get
the 2 outputs side by side in 2 windows so they line up, and see what has
changed.
