(I found typein.c in /usr/guest on my 4.1BSD system, if you don't have it, it just uses TIOCSTI to "type in" its arguments, as though you had typed them on the keyboard.) If you do it this way, it goes on your history list. typein does not type the newline for you, presumably to let you continue typing more stuff, although I personally would prefer the newline. TIOCSTI is in 4.1BSD and presumably 2.8BSD, but no other version of UNIX that I know of. Mark
