Forget my remark about built-in commands. Today ksh93 hung when I piped the output of man into grep. I had done this successfully once before in the same session.

Let me know if have trouble reading it. _______________________________________________ ast-users mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.research.att.com/mailman/listinfo/ast-users
