I think the /bin/sh (BSD) interpretation sequence goes something like this :-
a. Read input and parse
b. Check for verbose trace
c. Substitute Parameters
d. Command Substitution (`s)
e. I/O redirection
f. IFS processing
g. expand meta-chars
h. Execution trace
i. Env. processing
j. Execve the command.
What I would really like to know is: how different is the csh interpretation
sequence ? Can any wiz/guru enlighten me here ?
Martin.
