Thanks Justin that did the trick
if I was to put that regexp into words would it read
anchored to the beginning with no spaces or tabs of any number until the
colon then print?

Doesn't the openbsd ifconfig have an -l option?

Umm, I was answering the question asked (lame)

OP said he _guessed_ to have to resort to <handwave> greps and pipes </>,
which is a bit of a giveaway, methinks. But anyway.

Hardware Identification (NICs)
|
|
|
I'm not sure how to google for this (that should cover my ass for some
flames)
what I want is to issue a command at a prompt that will tell me the NIC's
I have installed on my box
now before I get overloaded with 'ifconfig -a' or 'man ifconfig' replys
the problem is I want only the 'rl0' or 'xl0' or w/ever the case may be
My guess is some grep or other needs piping in.. but guesses so far havent
got the desired result
Also dmesg is no good because its also giving too much info
TIA
