Zsh is installed as one of the main shells here in this institute, and I believe in DESY Hamburg. I have an office in the computer center here, and I'm known to be the local zsh expert, so I'd probably hear if something was going wrong (though I'm not officially involved with the UNIX systems). So far the only complaint I got was about `read -k' not working from a script, which I think has since been fixed. That seems to be quite a lot of satisfied users. -- Peter Stephenson Tel: +49 33762 77366 WWW: http://www.ifh.de/~pws/ Fax: +49 33762 77330 Deutches Electronen-Synchrotron --- Institut fuer Hochenergiephysik Zeuthen DESY-IfH, 15735 Zeuthen, Germany.
