I've seen some funny things from time to time. There's a bug, which may or may not be related, reported some time ago that if you foreground a process using less then quit with q that the settings are messed up. Alternative possibility: I've also seen problems between different minor versions of IRIX, where job control only works on the one where it was compiled. If you're using the same zsh on both the systems that might cause problems. Otherwise, job control certainly works under IRIX 5.3. -- Peter Stephenson Tel: +49 33762 77366 WWW: http://www.ifh.de/~pws/ Fax: +49 33762 77413 Deutches Electronen-Synchrotron --- Institut fuer Hochenergiephysik Zeuthen DESY-IfH, 15735 Zeuthen, Germany.
