The man page is wrong % xcalc & [1] 4730 % kill -BUS 4730 % [1] Bus error xcalc % xcalc & [1] 4731 % kill -10 4731 % [1] Bus error xcalc % echo $SHELL /bin/tcsh % LSOF shows I'm using the system tcsh, and AFAIK it behaves the same for being invoked as both /bin/csh and /bin/tcsh Gary _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
