The ff. does *not* work: (*process "/bin/sh for var in `cat foo`; do ; look $var >> fum; done") I've tried various escapes, parens etc. to no avail... The manual says it executes /bin/csh unless it can't find it, in which case it executes /bin/sh. Surely (?) you can override this! -- Mike Maxwell Boeing Artificial Intelligence Center ...uw-beaver!uw-june!bcsaic!michaelm
