I was just going through making these same changes in 3.0.6, when I was brought to a sudden halt by `promptsubst'. It occurs to me that printing the prompt can actually cause commands to be executed when `promptsubst' is set, because of $(...) substitutions. Depending on what those commands do, that certainly could affect the behavior of a script. I suppose it's not a major issue, but I wanted to ask whether anyone else has an opinion about it. -- Bart Schaefer Brass Lantern Enterprises http://www.well.com/user/barts http://www.brasslantern.com
