Since when is the shell in continuous use? You guys DO log out when you go
home, don't you?? You guys DO go home, don't you??
Hey, it's 2AM, (and I'm at home) and from 2-8AM, I expect the shell to come
and go like any other program. When I log in in the morning, things will be
speedy because AT&T has elected to waste swap space (yes, we demand page but
swap too) keeping stuff around for the shell's text region.
I agree that the sticky bit on the shell is not a big win, but wanted to point
out that that last copy DOES exit several times a day.
