I thought so, too. I have 4.6.1_6 on OS 7-STABLE with the annoying "read (subshell_pty...): No such file or directory (2)" problem. And the strange thing: I've seen a similar message with 4.7.0 on OS 8.0-RC1! Maybe I can "generate" the error again. I seem to remember that it was a bit different, but included the first words... At least, they fixed some annoying behaviour of the subshell, e. g. 1. Select some files, either by + or INS. 2. Enter a command, existing one or not, press Enter. 3. Result: Your selection is gone, and the cursor is at the first entry of the current directory. This happened only for the first command you entered after starting MC; all subsequent commands are processed as intended, and as it worked in the older versions without problems. The 4.7 version doesn't show this habit anymore, thankfully. A good improvement, it was annoying. Only thing I found: There are no "graphics" anymore; they are present e. g. in sysinstall (borders), but not in MC. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
