My copy of ash has only "echo" as a builtin. Whoops. :( That was csh. I just typed a 'which eval', and it returned 'eval: shell built-in command' There is no eval in ash, or in any external commands that I can find. I do know however that RCS compiles fine is ash is your /bin/sh. I'm better now. :-) Nate -- osynw@terra.oscs.montana.edu | Still trying to find a good reason for nate@cs.montana.edu | these 'computer' things.
