Has anyone noticed this: in Bash, the command cd //usr//bin
causes PWD to become "//usr/bin" instead of "/usr/bin". Bash's normal behavior is to replace all repeated /'s with a single slash. Right now I'm using Bash 3.00.16, but I've also tried older versions and noticed the same behavior. This happens for any "cd" command that contains an initial double slash, but it works fine for ///. For instance cd ///usr//bin sets the PWD as "/usr/bin". This problem only appears to be cosmetic; I haven't had any program complain when $PWD contains //. But does anyone know how to fix this. Or maybe it's not even a Bash thing, but is somehow related to the kernel or glibc? I'm not sure. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
