First, the REEADME says, "There are pretty many tests," which would fail any remedial English class. Just remove the "pretty".
tests/touch/not-owner produces a misdirecting error message when touch is allowed to change "/". Then "out" is a null string which will not match one of the three "exp" strings. It prints the last of the three error message strings. Since the error condition, successful completion, was known specifically even before the error message is checked, there was no reason to go that far and a more explicit error message could have been given. (Now, all I have to do is figure why it compiled code that allowed it.) Paul Rogers ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://www.xprt.net/~pgrogers/ Rogers' Second Law: "Everything you do communicates."
