Don't use tabs in the haresource file!

I always use tabs.  Let me go look at the code...

The takeover and giveup stuff is written in the shell.  All access to
the haresources file is through the ipres() function.  It's sole purpose
in life is to make the file easy for the rest of the code to deal with.
#
#       Remove comments and extra blanks from haresources
#       translate all white space into single blanks.  Each line ends
with
#       a blank, making parsing it easier for dumb shell scripts.
#
 
#
ipres() {
  if
    [ $# -lt 1 ]
  then
    arg='.'
  else
    arg=$1
  fi
  cat $HA_DIR/haresources |
        sed -e 's%#.*%%' -e 's%$% %' -e 's%[     ][      ]*% %'        
\
                -e 's%^ %%'                                            
|
        egrep "$arg"
} 

The second -e expression substitutes {blank|tab}{blank|tab}* into a
single blank.

I carefully reread the code, and it looks like it works.  Since I wrote
the code and I always use tabs, this isn't too surprising ;-)

Do you still have the haresources file that didn't work for you?

	Thanks!
