The problem was that netscape usually launches a command of the form: sh -c "(( ghostview /tmp/temporaryFile ); /bin/rm /tmp/temporaryFile) This fails because zsh interprets this as a mathematical expression. I remember that, around a month ago, there were some discussion regarding this problem and some work-around was described. I changed job and lost my previous mail relative to this topic. And I am not able to find the archives about this. Could someone send me the information. Thanks in advance. Alain Caron Sanga Research Corporation email: alainc@sangacorp.com
