I'm always interested in patching up a memory leak in rc.

>What do other shells do about this?

Presumably they don't leak.

>Depressing.  

Well, instead of being depressed about it you could send me some mail
with a full bug report.

I just looked at my rc-1.4 and I could not get it to leak on ^C. If you
gave described the problem in full (are you using readline, maybe a
prompt function doing something funny, etc.?) maybe somebody could do
something about it.

(BTW, I hate to say this, but it peeves me a bit that you refer to the
leak in the plural. Perhaps there is more than one memory leak left in
rc, but you only mentioned one in your mail. If you're going to talk
about memory leaks in the plural at least you could point out how to
tickle them.)

Byron.
