Great. Have you tested whether the -e flag gets propagated inside the functions? Yes, I have now: $ /bin/sh -e ; echo finished /bin/sh -e, status=$? $ echo $- eims $ # the -e flag propagates into subshells: $ tst1() { echo $- ; } $ tst1 eims $ # false result inside a function

tetex 2.99.1.20041026 prerelease

teTeX 2.99.1 can be considered something of a release candidate. I've made considerable efforts to make teTeX 3.0 [cross] build out of the box for Cygwin, many thanks to Thomas Esser and Olaf Weber. This release has major changes since 2.0.2, so I do not think it's wise to put this in the test

Sorry, the above is wrong: Sorry again, but please disregard my previous message. I was confused because I was testing some features of /bin/sh -e on Debian. On Debian /bin/sh invokes bash, while on Cygwin it runs ash. It turns out that these two handle subshells with -e differently:
