The story of porting AIX to ksh continues... So now I've got my port of ksh to AIX PS/2 1.1 working pretty well. However, the following anomaly has me puzzled: If I "open ksh" from a command prompt, it works properly. If I "open ksh" from my .profile, the "opened" session works properly, but the "opening" session hangs. I can get it to proceed by sending it SIGCHLD signal from my other session, or I can get it to proceed by pressing my INTR key. I can also get it to work by putting a "sleep 4&" just before my "open ksh" (this causes a SIGCHLD signal). Any (helpful) suggestions? -- Kevin Kleinfelter @ Management Science America, Inc (404) 239-2347 gatech!nanovx!msa3b!kevin
