bash is actually pretty good if you know how to use it (and most of the ksh93 comliant functions) - the problem is that most programmers don't. The ${} constructs add a lot of power and allow the programmer to be less reliant on external tools.
zsh provides some things i've never seen in bash, for example : - alternative syntax for complete commands, so you can write for f (*gz) gzip -d $f - file globbing flags, so you can set case insensitivity, sort by file size ... - a lot of good things like = generation to search in $PATH at least, i think zsh is better because it's almost 200k thinner: % ls -sh =zsh4 =bash 616K /bin/bash 456K /bin/zsh4
Your example is little different to a good ksh/bash implementation (though pipes aren't a bad thing so shouldn't necessarily be shyed away from).
sure! but it's faster without them. regards mc -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
