   A sample of my .login file (for csh):

   if ( "$tty" == "/dev/console" && "$TERM" == "sun" ) then
	   echo starting suntools....
	   sleep 2
	   if ( "$host" == "leo" ) then
		   setenv mono=true
		   exec suntools
	   else
		   exec suntools -f 255 250 120 -b 0 0 120
	   endif
   endif


   which automatically starts up suntools, after telling me.  Under csh,
   I can interrupt the csh when it shows the starting message, and it
   aborts the .login and I have a login shell.

   Bash, however, when executing the .bash_profile, terminates the login
   shell, so there is no way to do a (start suntools unless I interrupt)
   type thing.  This is the only problem stopping me using bash as a
   login shell.

   Is this a bug?  Is there some other way to get this functionality?

   Greg.

This is fixed in 1.05.
