Hi,
I'm runnign a script under Zsh 4.2.6 on Redhat
I'm spawning an egrep to do pattern matching:
if echo ${USER_NAME}|egrep -q "^[prt][0-9]"
But after a while this stops working and I get:
rt_sigsuspend(~[HUP CHLD RTMIN RT_1] <unfinished ...
I've tried to put brackets around it if (echo ${USER_NAME}|egrep -q "^[prt][0-9]")
But it still fails after a while.
>From testing it happens after losts of spawning (The above script never failes under ksh).
I've tried to find examples but how do I do this pattern matching in zsh without using egrep:
if echo ${USER_NAME}|egrep -q "^[prt][0-9]"
I find lots of examples of pattern matching on files but how do i do the above in zsh with using egrep or perl etc. ?
Thanks in advance,
jerry
