The ksh man page reads: "The name of the shell (i.e. the contents of $0) is de-termined as follows: if the -c option is used and there is a non-option argument, it is used as the name; if commands are being read from a file, the file is used as the name; otherwise, the basename the shell was called with (i.e. argv[0]) is used.
The observed behavior is: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $] ksh -c "echo $0" ksh [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $] Now, according to the above snippet from the man-page, shouldn't the output be "echo", and not "ksh"? (echo is the non-option argument, and -c is also being used). Or am I messing things up in my mind? Thanks in advance for setting my train of thought straight. -Amarendra
