Bash 1.01 (1.02 seemed buggier when I tried to install it after it first came out) sometimes exits when it shouldn't. One easy way to reproduce it on this system (Sun 3, SunOS 4.0.1) is: cd /usr/lib (or any directory with a lot of files) ls ^C (just before the files start to come out on the screen) (shell exits - we have a login prompt) Sometimes it takes two or three tries to get the shell to exit. This can be annoying (start up a command, realize it's going to take a long time to get going, type ^C, lose your shell). I cannot repeat this behaviour under SunOS 3.4, so that may help to isolate the problem. Sorry this isn't a clean report. -- Brian Glendenning - Radio astronomy, University of Toronto brian@radio.astro.utoronto.ca uunet!utai!radio!brian glendenn@utorphys.bitnet
