- in <1992Sep3 231718.16061@sadtler.com> Rick stated that
-
- if -d NULL
-
- returned a true status on his SUN (4.1.3) indicating that "NOTHING" was
- a directory
-
- but a false on his SGI.
-
- Which is right?
-
- I tried the same test on a NCR TOWER (5.3) and a NCR 3445 (5.4)
- and got the same result on both.
-
- NULL is NOT a directory on either machine
