That's what I did, but it doesn't help for the non-standard usage of /usr/bin/time (-f option). They even explicitly used /usr/bin/time rather than bash's builtin.

Maybe my version of pdksh is just too old, but it doesn't grok that $((I--)) construct either. OK, just installed ksh93, it appearently understands it. Still, I don't see a real need for this in CSiBE as it would be simple to replace it by the standard Posix arithmetics syntax, or even more portably by the use of expr(1). The time -f thing is a bit harder to do (in particular given that bash's time(1) builtin behaves different that the Posix time(1)). -- cheers, J"org .-.-. --... ...-- -.. .
