Rob Farmer dixit: >(New) people will still copy and paste commands into an interactive >tcsh That=E2=80=99s a FreeBSD=C2=AE specific issue though. Other operating syste= ms did the sensible thing ages ago =E2=98=BA Even then, I tend to disagree here. There=E2=80=99s the common use of =E2=80=98% =E2=80=99 and =E2=80=98$ =E2=80=99 (and =E2=80=98# =E2=80=99 but= we use sudo(8) these days) as PS1 in examples to distinguish between these two. bye, //mirabilos --=20 13:47=E2=8E=9C<tobiasu> if i were omnipotent, i would divide by zero all day long ;) (thinking about http://lobacevski.tumblr.com/post/3260866481 by waga)
