the quoting difference was not meant in reference to csh but to the fact that i can neither just eval the following nor split it on the = because i also must remove the '' or they will be part of the value being assigned: DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS='unix:abstract=/tmp/dbus-znQbMX8oPo,guid=a357144570b6ed36175720bb4b2d7b00' DBUS_SESSION_BUS_PID=5181 yes, i could create a sed expression that does remove the '' in this case, but i would not trust this to work in every case. setenv does not work btw because it sets a global variable wheras i want to set an universal one. (btw i think the point of setenv vs set in csh is that setenv produces an exported variable, regardless of being global or something else) greetings, martin. -- cooperative communication with sTeam - caudium, pike, roxen and unix offering: programming, training and administration - anywhere in the world -- pike programmer travelling and working in europe open-steam.org unix system- bahai.or.at iaeste.(tuwien.ac|or).at administrator (caudium|gotpike).org is.schon.org Martin Bähr http://www.iaeste.or.at/~mbaehr/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
