http://www.blastwave.org/~mgyger/ast.diff.gz is the lastest patch, right ? > (dated, of course). How common are the XATTR extension, e.g. is there any other OS which supports this feature+userspace API ? Is there any other shell which supports "cd -@" ? Quick look thought the patch shows that some builtins such as "mv" needs adjustements for this feature, e.g. -- snip -- +#if !SHOPT_XATTR "mv", NV_BLTIN|NV_NOFREE, bltin(mv), +#endif -- snip -- should be replaced via copying Solaris's "mv"'s support into ksh93's "mv" built-in... ---- Bye, Roland -- __ . . __ (o.\ \/ /.o) roland.mainz at nrubsig.org \__\/\/__/ MPEG specialist, C&&JAVA&&Sun&&Unix programmer /O /==\ O\ TEL +49 641 7950090 (;O/ \/ \O;)
