Re: problem suspending "man bash" (intermittent)

to It looks like some sort of race condition in the signal handling, but I couldn't tell you where (cygwin, bash, less) it is. If you have access to a Unix machine, it might be interesting to see if you can reproduce this. Who knows, it might turn out to be a bash bug. -- Dario Alcocer -- Sr.
