- Hi Michael,
-
- - please send me the shells
- - I thought about fixing system() too (read the mintdocs),
- but entropy is against this until everyone has a /bin/sh.
- Similar thoughts about popen(), which doesn't use the /bin/sh
- by default. Personally, I always use my own version of the
- mintlibs with a patched system() (and getopt(), and statfs, etc...)

- Bye, Hildo
