I already have a fix (tested and queued for my sponsor) for CR #6793120 which does something similar as you've proposed... and since the commands all go through the same wrapper we won't see this problem a 2nd time (and "yes", I'll be carefull the next time and explicitly test for this condition - CR #6793120 was one of the mistakes in the ksh93-integration update1 putback which was really avoidable if I would've used my brain... ;-/ ). ---- Bye, Roland -- __ . . __ (o.\ \/ /.o) roland.mainz at nrubsig.org \__\/\/__/ MPEG specialist, C&&JAVA&&Sun&&Unix programmer /O /==\ O\ TEL +49 641 3992797 (;O/ \/ \O;)
