Hi Gerrit, sorry I hadn't received your message. Sorry for the bogus sentence above. I meant: ash should *not* report about the "1" and "" variables above as they are not mapped to shell variables. The output of export -p should be suitable for reinput to the shell, and if you enter export 1='' in the shell, you get a syntax error. -- Stéphane -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
