I've tried a number of syntax-colouring editors, to no avail. The quotes (single, double, and back) *are* balanced, according to everything I've thrown the script at. That's why I'm more interested in something that can actually parse Bourne shell syntax (quiet Terry - I *know* what you're going to say) and dump out what it thinks the parse tree looks like. The problem isn't with the quotes being unbalanced, it's something else that's making the shell ignore one (or more) of those quotes. --lyndon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
