Dennis, no need to apologize for my dumb question, or at the least.. one
very poorly phrased...!

("variable character data, as well as graphic, bitmap and all that..." was
intended to imply (somehow?...;-), "*VARCHAR, DBCS, audio/video and what-all
via links...")  So what I was wondering was whether there are fundamental
differences between text files that *nix commands work best on, and a
variable character fields in DB2.
