In the classic Bourne shell we get: $ exec 10> aap 10: not found $ cat aap cat: input aap is output $ exec > /dev/tty $ cat aap >&10 10: bad file number $ set a b c d e f g h i j k $ echo $# 11 $ echo $10 a0 $ I expect bash to have these fixed. I.e. don't look for a DIGIT, but a NUMBER. The days of less than 10 file descriptors are long over. -- `I AM NEW HEAR AMD I WANT TO INKRIMENT A |Maarten Litmaath @ VU Amsterdam: VURIABLE BY 1 (OONE) IN "c"' (Tom Neff) |maart@cs.vu.nl, mcvax!botter!maart
