Thanks. I will admit that my current fix is rather a blunt instrument, in the sense that it simply checks to see if the /bin/sh symlink points to bash, and if it doesn't, bypasses the columns vars. (This is in /etc/rc.d/functions, I'm talking about) What would probably be more useful would be a set of elifs defining ways of setting the colwidth for various shells, depending on which one your /bin/sh points to. I'm only considering the five major ones here, too...tcsh, zsh, ksh, bash, and ash. Are there any tcsh users here who could tell me which changes (if any) would be needed for that shell? -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
