If developmental stability was all it took to attract third party developers
then why didn't FreeBSD "win the desktop" a decade ago? Or indeed Plan 9 (I
suppose this is reductio)?

Mr. Robbins' boo
Anyone experienced definining pmake's ".SHELL" target as rc (the standalone)?
Mine keeps exiting at every non-zero return status. And I'm getting tired of
reading the pmake manuals (well written as they are).
This is on FreeBSD 8.1.

P9P sed gives me the error "Label too long" on:
% echo foo | sed 's/./&/;ta;b;:a;s//*/'
but not on:
% echo foo | sed 's/./&/
ta
b
:a
s//*/'
As though the label commands require immediate newlines.
Anyone else experience this?
How might I split a file into pieces specified by size?
split(1) lets me specify lines and regex contexts as delimiters, but what if I
want a 40MB file split up into 1.44MB chunks, say?

It looks like you're you're using the Rakitzis rc; is readline involved?
