On Debian GNU/Linux 2.2.19 bash: crash. csh: Word too long. sh: Segmentation fault Walter
When I was runnig some programs like vi or mpg123 with parameter with many "%s/*" i have strange results fe. argv@jaskinia:~$ mpg123 `perl -e 'print "/*%s"x9000'` [now i'm seeing prompt to login] As you can see after this command shell (bash) is exiting. It's don't work under tcsh and csh: tcsh:mpg123 `perl -e 'print "/*%s"x9000'`Word too long.csh: %mpg123 `perl -e 'print "/*%s"x9000'` Word too long. % I don't tried it under other shells. -- -=[ Patryk Chmielewski -> :: <- argv () jaskinia eu org ]=- -=[ ****** http://argv.jaskinia.eu.org ****** ]=- -=[ "If you lie to the compiler, it will get its revenge." ]=-
