Why the hell does printf take up to 3 hex digits? What's wrong with 2 (lastest bash just does 2).
$ /usr/bin/printf "\xf73" s $ printf "\xf73" ÷3 printf from sh-utils just ignored the first hex digit? $ rpm -qf `which printf` sh-utils-2.0.11-14 thanks, Pádraig. _______________________________________________ Bug-sh-utils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-sh-utils
