Subject: PATCH: repeat with negative count
Date: Tue, 4 Jan 2000 09:06:36 +0100 (MET)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200001040806.JAA22069@beta.informatik.hu-berlin.de> (raw)


I'm not completely sure about this one, but it feels wrong...

`repeat' with a negative count starts looping, different from the tcsh 
version of `repeat' which does nothing in such cases.

Should we make it return `1' in this case?

Bye
 Sven
