Hi Steffen, >i think, the \r is expanded, the output is
a bit unsure what exactly you’re talking about, but you cannot ever use echo to display strings portably. Use 'print -r -- "$foo"' to display the contents of the foo parameter. Is there anything you think mksh fails to do correctly? If so, please indicate _exactly_ where and what and how. I guess I’ll have to look into the Austin ML archive, what is the Subject of the thread? Thanks, //mirabilos -- Stéphane, I actually don’t block Googlemail, they’re just too utterly stupid to successfully deliver to me (or anyone else using Greylisting and not whitelisting their ranges). Same for a few other providers such as Hotmail. Some spammers (Yahoo) I do block.
