See expr(1) for more details and a workaround which is portable to both historic and POSIX expr implementations. (Allegedly, the new expr behavior is already required of all UNIX-branded systems, so the w3m authors should be well familiar with it. It is an old POSIX.2 requirement.) -GAWollman To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
