If it does go in the FAQ, it should include a note that RPROMPT (RPS1) does not work correctly unless PROMPT (PS1) starts at far left. Thus if you use RPS1, you either need setopt promptcr, or you need a newline in PS1 somewhere. -- Bart Schaefer Brass Lantern Enterprises http://www.well.com/user/barts http://www.brasslantern.com
