Could some kind soul please fill me in on the details (maybe my email, but I'm sure others are as confused as me). I thought job control was handled by the csh with things like this: % emacs & % ls -l % fg %1 (then hit cntl-z sometime) % rsh sandbox.mcs "ls -l" temp & % rsh sun.soe "ls -l " temp & % fg %2 % fg %1 etc, etc, etc. -- Jason Coughlin ( jk0@sun.soe.clarkson.edu , jk0@clutx ) "Every jumbled pile of person has a thinking part that wonders what the part that isn't thinking isn't thinking of." - They Might Be Giants
