>Will 1.5 be brought into line with the Plan 9 man page?

That's a good question. I'm hoping to freeze rc. I also don't feel
the need to bring rc "into line" with anything else. So offhand I
would say no. The flag command is present in plan9 rc for a very
specific reason (/lib/rcmain). And I don't want dot to search
my path. What if I do:

	; cat >test <<EOF
	garbage
	EOF
	; . test

and "." is at the end of my path? Does this mean I run /bin/test
as rc input? (THIS IS WHAT /bin/sh ACTUALLY DOES!!)

No thank you.
