Subject: History bug still present in 3.0.3-test5
Date: Sat, 10 May 1997 10:40:24 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <970510104024.ZM9405@candle.brasslantern.com> (raw)
I reported some while ago that zsh was failing to save history when it exits
due to a dropped connection.
This is still happening.
To see it, run
xterm -e zsh -l
and then use the window manager to kill the xterm. The $HISTFILE file will
be truncated to zero size.
I think the problem may be that zsh begins to save history when it gets the
EOF on standard input, and then exits without finishing the job because it
gets a SIGHUP immediately thereafter. However, I can't be sure that this is
the problem.
