I want the zsh package to ask me if it should divert /bin/sh, like the other shells do. In other words, I want zsh to be supported as /bin/sh; if there is a bug with /bin/sh compatibility, that that bug will be taken seriously.
Wanna write a proposal?
I may at some point. I suspect it will be technically difficult, though. -- brian m. carlson / brian with sandals: Houston, Texas, US +1 713 440 7475 | http://crustytoothpaste.ath.cx/~bmc | My opinion only troff on top of XML: http://crustytoothpaste.ath.cx/~bmc/code/thwack OpenPGP: RSA v4 4096b 88AC E9B2 9196 305B A994 7552 F1BA 225C 0223 B187
