You're right, that would work for umask (as would Ulrich's suggestions with Mono.Unix.Native.Syscall.umask). But it won't work for other builtins (like jobs or set), because it starts a new shell. I'm curious, if there is a generic solution for this problem. cheers Mathias _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
