- I have the same problem but don't have a solution. I'd like to hear any
- suggestions. The command I have the problem with is 'history -r | more',
- run by a csh alias. It occurs with about the same frequency, too. When I
- check my active jobs, I see:
-
- [2] + 9492 Done history -r |
- 9493 Background write more
-
- The problem appears to be with more, but it may be more complicated.
- Any ideas out there?
