My solution went in my .bash_profile. I tried it with zsh and ksh, with same results. Both work fine.

And I read that dash has no arrays. So what do you suggest? Is it clean to implement it with an if/case? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
