I don't hate bash, it is just that it lacks so many cool features of zsh/tcsh (programmable completion, variables, fancy prompt) and have some key bindings different from the other shells. I don't care about POSIX compliancy, something bash has always insisted on. Ollivier, very heavy tcsh user for 10 years, recently converted to zsh. PS: note that the next version of bash will have programmable completion. -- Ollivier ROBERT -=- FreeBSD: The Power to Serve! -=- roberto@keltia.freenix.fr FreeBSD keltia.freenix.fr 4.0-CURRENT #72: Mon Jul 12 08:26:43 CEST 1999 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
