So . . . we've determined three things: 1. You think some measure of popularity of a decision makes it correct. 2. You don't like (t)csh. 3. You think your opinions are so self-evident that everybody will just immediately understand them, their reasoning, and the best way to proceed from there. What we have not yet determined is: 1. Is it a good idea to replace (t)csh? -- Chad Perrin [ original content licensed OWL: http://owl.apotheon.org ]
