OK, so it's not a bug, but I see a handy feature to be
added later here.
If I have a function:
foo()
{
if [ -d $whatever ]
then
cd $whatever
else
exit
}
This will exit from the shell, not the function only. How can
I exit from just the function.
Also, using bash-1.03 with the vi diffs that came accross
the other week, on an xterm, I have problems with the
command line editing.
1) it doesn't know where the beginning of the
line is.
2) I have CTRL chars embedded in my PS1 to reverse
video it on the xterm, & this confuses bash.
