i probably could have done this like 15 or more years ago with baja, but I can't
process the way to do it now.

what i would do (which requires no brain power) is to cat your new line to a new
file, then cat your current list to that file, then move that file over your
info.lst

or if your list file has a date or something sortable, you could just sort the
file.
