Sorry, there was a logic error in the readline bit. Turns out if you actually try to use that configure option then compilation fails. Also, in spite of the --enable-static-link option the resultant binary is dynamically linked. I checked both a port build and building it by hand, same result. The current shells/bash (4.0) does not have this problem. Doug -- Improve the effectiveness of your Internet presence with a domain name makeover! http://SupersetSolutions.com/ Computers are useless.
