Bash?!? (Score:2, Interesting)

by Dom2 (2981)

You wanted proper redirection and you went for bash? What about zsh [zsh.org]? You get way better globbing and completion with that, too.
ls /dev >dev.1 >dev.2
Also, you do get the extremely useful feature from csh of being able to do cmd >& output, which is undeniably useful (although it is convenient to have alternative redirections).
Still, if you must use bash, don't forget to check out bash programmable completion [caliban.org].

    Trouble is, that doesn't mean it's the best fit for you. Lots of people "like" windows, too...
