"cat /bin" on Solaris 9 does exactly the same thing as on FreeBSD; shows the contents of the directory, just like you're asking it to. Just because you can't fathom a use for this behavior doesn't mean it's wrong. If you don't want to see it, don't ask "cat" to show it to you. -- Matthew Hunt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * Science rules. http://www.pobox.com/~mph/ * _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
