| Akim, | stenn@porkypine> sh | $ foo=`exit 12 2>/dev/null` | $ echo $foo | | $ bar=`(exit 12) 2>/dev/null` | $ echo $bar | | $ (PATH=. ; echo baz ) | echo: not found | $ I'm lost. I thought it was the redirection of `cd' which was wrong, and though it would be the same for all builtins... So indeed I understand that echo is not a builtin, but exit must be a builtin, and it does not show the `illegal io' message :( I'm a bit lost here. foo=`cd / 2>/dev/null` echo ,$foo, bar=`cd /foo 2>/dev/null` echo ,$bar, baz=`exit nonsense 2>/dev/null` echo ,$baz, Maybe `exit' has no error message at all? exit nonsense What builtin could issue message? If someone understands what happens, please speak up! Thanks Harlan!
