I have just got zsh-2.6-beta10 succesfully compiled it under Solaris 2.3 and after playing a while I have noticed following feature: when I do following steps: 1. su 2. su - user 3. zsh then I can not edit the history. As far as I could trace the problem it comes from the fact that in step 2 Solaris does not change the owner of /dev/pts/? and as a result in zsh the symbol TTY is empty and can not be set. I am not sure if this should be fixed in zsh or in Solaris. Jerzy PS. I am not subscribed to the list so please mail me directly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jerzy Sobczyk ____________ ___ Institute of Control and J.Sobczyk@ia.pw.edu.pl / / | |/ _\ Computation Engineering, / / /| | | (____ Warsaw University tel.+48 2 660 7297 / / _>| | |\____ \ of Technology fax.+48 22 253719 /__/__/__|__|__|_____) \ Nowowiejska 15/19 tlx. 813 307 pw pl /________________________/ 00-665 Warsaw, POLAND ------------------------------------------------------------------------
