% sleep with me?
No match.

I think this was the originally intented line.  We really must be more
careful when we read these things.  There have been so many complaints
about people not specifying the environment in this series of articles,
but I think the problem is often people not paying attention to what
they are reading.  For instance, in my example, and the previous, it
should be obvious that you must use the C-shell.

It's not that funny anyway :-(
