Hi!

first of all: Joerg your softwares are great!!!!
closed this point ... let's return to the shell

I Know sorry! I'm not expressed in the right way. The goal of this post is if 
the shell can compile also with OpenSolaris ecc... I've read "for example" that 
in some systems we can't fork a process and execute a program but we have a 
single syscall that do both fork+exec named like spawn...
So I didn't know if there were some problems like this.

>What is the reason for using a more restrictive license than the GPLv2?
I've read some on the v3 and I agree with Stallman! I've choosen this version 
like a test. If this will create problems to anyone that touch the shell I can 
change the license or in future reuse the v2. I'm not linked to a particular 
licence... when I make a software I decide the licence that I like for that 
software...

Bye!

Thanks a lot Pradhap... good news!
Bye!

I like to program... I like Linux and *nix OS... I like also shells... :D
Basically I develop for hobby. I'm only a student and I've lot of work with 
university but when the evening a come to home and I like to program something 
I don't ask to myself if my software can change the world and if not I drop it!
There is Linux
There is bash
There is Half-Life...
In this way I can't decide to develop anythig

>Not to try to discourage you 
Don't mind... you can't :D even John Carmack can't :D

To have some news or other my works you can go to
http://santostefanogiovanni.blogspot.com
But I've not a web site for my shell... It's planned but the project is in the 
prealpha stage and I've not the time to make a website... hope in the next two 
weeks

>yours in particular?  How is it different or better?
Now I don't think can be better than other shells... but I've written it 
without read existing code! I've used some shells... and this way I make my own.
Also if anyone want to see how can work a very simple shell, can read the 
source. There are a lot of comments... really a lot... and I provide a text 
file with the list of the files in order to understand the main structure!
It's very important that my shell is easy to understand... I think if a newbie 
open the source of bash or other mature shells... it will close it soon!

Bye!
Giovanni
