- I noticed that csh seems to miss some characters when appending to
- binary files.
-
- e.g. cat c:list >> c:dir
-
- That leaves me with a file smaller than the two added together.
- Obviously i didnt do the above, but notived it when I dir joined about 10
- 719K chunks with cat on csh (linux usr.tar.gz installation) and ended up
- with about 1.5 mesg less than i should have had.
- Is this a bug, or a feature ?
