The `-p' option is documented with the rest of the shell options in the description of the `set' builtin. It is not an option that's only valid at invocation time, so it's not documented in the OPTIONS section. The INVOCATION section contains essentially the text above, plus a description of the other effects it has at startup. -- ``The lyf so short, the craft so long to lerne.'' - Chaucer ``Ars longa, vita brevis'' - Hippocrates Chet Ramey, ITS, CWRU c...@case.edu http://cnswww.cns.cwru.edu/~chet/
