I said in my original post that it did not dump core. I guess the exit
status was zero, I ran this immediately after mutt quit:

cortex:~>echo $?
0
[7]+  Done                    rxvt +ls -n XMutt -bg black -fg white -tn
rxvt -geometry 80x60 -fn -misc-*-bold-*-normal-*-14-80-*-*-*-*-*-2 -e mutt

This is the system information:

OSF1 cortex.neurology.umaryland.edu V4.0 564 alpha

I see. I thought Digital Unix 4.0 had a pretty standard regex but I may get
GNU regex. Thanks.
