Actually I got concerned about other big problems with echo. It was pointed out on this list that this was confusing:
whatever | echo 0 > /srv/whatever I mean, how can you pipe to echo? So I have a fixed version. Now, the sequence above will check fd 0 in the namespace. If it is a pipe, it will copy fd 0 to fd 1 until EOF, or the rent is due. Further, I added these patches to echo: abcdefghijklmnopqv v works as on cat. All other switches, see the texinfo. ron
