n4hhe: {550} time l
l: Command not found.
0.0u 0.0s 0:00.00 0.0% 0+0k 0+0io 0pf+0w
n4hhe: {551} alias l
ls -lL
n4hhe: {552}
Maybe my failure provides some clue. The alias was manually entered.
Also tried putting it in ~/.cshrc
Am I simply too tired to grok why time won't execute an alias on my
2.2.6 system and Greg's (probably -current) does?
Ooh! I see pppd just got a workover in -stable. Think I need to go play
with it. Maybe dial-on-demand has been added!
