[ast-users] Passing a file descriptor to a child process?

ksh93 uses O_CLOEXEC to avoid passing all its file descriptors to a child process. That is IMO a good thing (clean!). However, is there a way to pass a file descriptor to a child process? Tina -- Tina Harriott - Women in Mathematics Contact: tina.harriott.mathemat...@gmail.com

imagine it would just work like wrapping your favourite functions into a statement like namespace ca.uwaterloo.math.statistics1.util {} and you can share them without risk, right? Tina -- Tina Harriott - Women in Mathematics Contact: tina.harriott.mathemat...@gmail.com

Re: [ast-users] Edit 10GB file with fixed size records

. How would this example look like if I opened a file descriptor with the number 19? ksh seems to use file descriptors 0-9 for manual usage, but descriptors opened with exec {filed}name.rec use numbers 10. Tina -- Tina Harriott - Women in Mathematics Contact: tina.harriott.mathemat...@gmail.com
