Eek? Well, I'm mostly waiting on enlightenment on the DARCS_ARGUMENT thing first. I also wonder if we would ever get into the situation where we try launch two commands at the same time and have them accidentally step over each others DARCS_ARGUMENTS toes. I confess I really don't understand this stuff very well and can only say silly superficial things like "let's avoid introducing any more weird ssh-calling bugs if we can". If anything, I'd like to see the exec code using System.Process the basic principle being to keep our code simple and farm out all the ugly to dedicated libraries by people who've been thinking harder about this stuff than us (plus the Windows code uses it now, so it could be simpler). But if we did this, would we lose Magnus Jonsson's rigourous error checking? -- Eric Kow http://www.loria.fr/~kow PGP Key ID: 08AC04F9 Merci de corriger mon français.
