Actually, I saw the two rewrites first as they were sent via
Personal mail and list mail, and I see personal mail in my Inbox, first,
usually while list email I read by opening the corresponding
bug-bash folder. (i.e. email sorted as it comes in
direct address ->Inbox, list->list-folders)
But anyway, something else is is awry.
Now my root prompt, instead of being red, looks like:
"\[\033[1m\]\[\033[31m\]Ishtar:root#\[\033[0m\] "
;-/
What version of bash has the \[ \] characters to keep it
from counting chars?
