moin moin, a question on another list about determining which shell is currently being used led to some nice answers. I thought I'd post some here in that the answers might not only be useful, but might lead to learning more about how things work. ls -l /proc/$$/exe readlink /proc/$$/exe cat /proc/$$/cmdline ps -p $$ ps | grep $$ If you haven't wandered around in proc you should check it out. If you have, you should likely look again :). /me looks again. ciao, der.hans -- # https://www.LuftHans.com/ http://www.CiscoLearning.org/ # "The babys blood type?
