Every time I see this, a second run (even by arrowing up to retrieve the line from the tcsh buffer) works normally. I can't remember when this started happening. It's not frequent and, sadly, not predictable. If I think about it next time it happens, I'll do an `ls -ul' on the command to see if it even got accessed. Just wondering if anyone else has seen this. I know this is vague (which is why I didn't report it sooner); my apologies for this. -- Doug Lee dgl@visi.com http://www.visi.com/~dgl Bartimaeus Group doug@bartsite.com http://www.bartsite.com "This page is best viewed with your monitor switched on." --from Antiword web site (http://www.winfield.demon.nl/index.html) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
