If you're willing to make a minor change you could switch from bash to zsh. zsh has a "preexec" function that runs after hitting Enter and before starting the program. bash and zsh are extremely similar for interactive use - they're both Bourne shells and they both support almost all of the same command-line features like completion, history, emacs/vi line editing, etc. Configuration is a little different, though. -- Michael Heironimus -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
