Message-ID: <9311011835.AA25777@oldp.astro.wisc.edu> (raw)
I've just discovered a minor incompatibility between rc and sh:
sh -ce foo # execute foo and exit on any error
rc -ce foo # execute e with an argument of foo
rc is behaving according to the manual page, so this is not a bug,
however, I wonder if the behaviour should be changed to follow that of
sh?
I came across this using make on our new SGI machine -- it executes
commands with $SHELL -ce ... and I had forgotten to explicity set SHELL
to sh within the Makefile.
Alan.
