Eric,
Thanks for you responce. You're right, running '/bin/pwd' doesn't have this
issue. The problem is specific to C shell. Bash and tcsh worked as expected.
Best regards,

Subject: Re: Some bug in 'pwd' command
Hello,
When the parent directory name contains "{}" pwd fails to detect
location.
For example:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/tmp]$ cd /home/olgag/tmp/test\ bug\ [EMAIL PROTECTED]
#\$%^\&\*\(\)_+\|}\{\[]\ \":\?\>\</conserver-8.1.14
[EMAIL PROTECTED] conserver-8.1.14]$ pwd
Missing }.
Thanks for the report. However, because you used 'pwd' instead
of '/bin/pwd', you probably got your shell's builtin version instead
of the coreutils executable. Coreutils does not have this bug, so I
recommend reporting it to the shell's bug list instead. To prove
whether it was your shell, see if 'pwd --version' is recognized;
coreutils' pwd will respond with a version number instead of
an error message.
