Hi!
The system doesn't wait for me to open the reader, I get the message
instantly.
I worked on 4.7 & still does (also on linux, netbsd, ... :-) )
This is NetBSD 1.6
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# echo "test" > f &
[1] 2383
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# cat < f
test
[1]+ Done echo "test" >f
And this is FreeBSD 5.0
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# echo "test" > f &
[1] 2436
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# -bash: f: Resource temporarily unavailable
[1]+ Exit 1 echo "test" >f
