At the very least, "zsh -si" should use the standard input as it was told, and not go reopening the terminal. This actually appears to be zle's fault, because if I explicitly shut off zle with "zsh +Z -i" then I can shovel standard input at it all I like. I would think, though, that zle should depend on the input being a tty, and not the other way around. -- Bart Schaefer Brass Lantern Enterprises http://www.well.com/user/barts http://www.brasslantern.com
