Message-ID: Date: 11 Nov 88 08:38:27 GMT Organization: Amdahl Corporation, Sunnyvale, CA 94086 Lines: 21 [ "Send lawyers, guns, and money ..." ] Here's a little "anomaly" with the 1.3 AmigaShell that's somewhat of a nuisance. Seems that the "Shell-Startup" file doesn't work real well if it contains embedded tab chars. At least aliases don't work if there are any tabs between the alias itself, and the replacement string! Comeon! What happened to that iswhitespace() function, anyway? I know I saw it lurking around somewhere or another ... Sigh. /kim -- UUCP: kim@amdahl.amdahl.com or: {sun,decwrl,hplabs,pyramid,uunet,oliveb,ames}!amdahl!kim DDD: 408-746-8462 USPS: Amdahl Corp. M/S 249, 1250 E.
