Cshell hangs on "touch ~/.ididsu ; su"

[Kurt Jaeger aka PI]

Hi !

While testing a little feature that might help me with doing my root-work
I stumbled across a strange feature:

alias su "touch ~/.ididsu ; su"

su

And then the session hangs. It does not react on ctrl-d, DEL or ctrl-c.
The telnet-session can still be quit by ctrl-], but that was NOT my intention.

What the h*ll I am doing wrong ?

I checked it on a ultrix 3.[12] and the commando worked...

		Thanks in advance, PI
