On my Solaris system here, I get more signals with zsh than bash (although it's an oldish bash). Are they system specific, or pseudo-signals (like DEBUG) which the shell handles itself? The former is probably a bug in our signal-finding script, the latter would need some work. By the way, we (well, I :-)) would be happy to hear about any suggestions about bash compatibility. We've tended to concentrate on plain Bourne shell, but these days a lot of Linux/GNU-oriented users think of bash as `the' shell, so we may need to think more about it. -- Peter Stephenson Software Engineer CSR Ltd., Unit 300, Science Park, Milton Road, Cambridge, CB4 0XL, UK Tel: +44 (0)1223 392070 ********************************************************************** The information transmitted is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
