The business of sharing entries in the c_cc array, depending on how some of the other flags have been set up, is how shall we say, a bit distasteful....and the addition of SWTCH for c_cc[7] (for shl) makes hash of the rather sensible idea of using c_cc[6,7] for VMIN and VTIME. Oh well, time to grow the array.... Mats Wichmann Dual Systems ...{ucbvax,ihnp4,cbosgd,decwrl,fortune}!dual!mats
