i think that p9p mk uses /bin/sh to execute commands for bootstrapping reasons (it's rather difficult to mk rc with mk using rc for a command interpreter.) but otherwise it would be nice if mk used rc.
p9p is faithful enough to plan 9 that often changing the mkfile is the most difficult part of porting something from plan 9 to p9p. - erik On Tue Apr 11 20:16:54 CDT 2006, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > i'm fairly sure now that it's a difference between bash and other sh in > > handling -e, > > i'm certain: (command-list) doesn't cause bash to exit if the list returns an > error > (even though the subsequent $? is indeed non-zero). still, i see that > bash has a great many pages of other things to do. >
