Mmm yes it helps, I know what you mean, adding a line on the own lmd binary
script that checks if .LMD already exists... any time you run lmd an for
any user ;) Not bad :D but... if fear I don't know so sed "command", so I
can't comprehend where are you exactly telling me that I should put that
or... well :S sorry, could you explain it a little more :S

My bigest thanks friend
