The issue is not with bash, but with dash. But my problem remains. I need to use dash, and the policy wants the script to be sourced. My only solution at this time is to have a separate script with the argument coded into it. I would prefer not to do that, but even more I would like to understand the behavior. -Denis _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
