It's also helpful to just have multiple shells on hand in addition to bash. Dash and posh both attempt to be strictly POSIX compliant. You can just install them in ~/bin if your distro doesn't package them. Then it's easy to test things out instead of slogging through the documentation. http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/dash/ http://ftp.debian.org/pool/main/p/posh/ -- Dan _______________________________________________ Pm-utils mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/pm-utils
