An Expect script could do the job and avoid the command-line (ps) issue. Aside: If /bin/echo is evaluated instead of the built-in bash command echo, could there be a window of vulnerability in your pipe solution? I'm also unsure if the bash built-in would not show up briefly in ps either. -- To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URL: http://www.sagemath.org
