Re: One dumb question
Many thanks to everyone who responded!
I think Ehud wins today's golden biskit award: he discerned that I needed
to put something IN script "A" which would capture the shell stdout WHILE
EXECUTING SCRIPT "A". If I read them right, everyone else would have
required that I split out the part to be debugged into a separate script.
If I could get rxvt working for me, with its deep buffer, I suppose I
wouldn't need this.
