That brings up the real question. Wouldn't it be nice if su just changed the state of the current shell rather than spawning a new one. History, etc would be preserved thru the transitions. Ooh ah. That's what I want. And then I could chuck my .cshrc forever. Andy Tannenbaum Bell Labs Whippany, NJ (201) 386-6491
