Perhaps you didn't understand. The RML commands aren't being sent to the shell. They are being run through RDSend. RDSend is being run at the command line. But when RDSend is run, with its own specific command line options which tell it to look in a text file for the markup commands, it performs differently then when it is called as a macro.

The command interpreted by Rivendell, translated and executed are interpreted within a very specific context, and it ain't BASH. The command line is *usually* BASH on most Linux, but it could also be SH or ASH, or BSH, or CSH, or a few others. Assuming that any of them will interpret the command the same way as any other without knowing the syntaxt for *that* shell and *that* command within that shell, *and* within *that* context, would be a misteak. -- Cowboy http://cowboy.cwf1.com /earth is 98% full ... please delete anyone you can. _______________________________________________ Rivendell-dev mailing list [email protected] http://caspian.paravelsystems.com/mailman/listinfo/rivendell-dev _______________________________________________ Rivendell-dev mailing list [email protected] http://caspian.paravelsystems.com/mailman/listinfo/rivendell-dev
