Dear Managers,
Is there a bug in PK3 with The ERP (t64v51ab3-c0043701-15279-es-20020828.tar)
kit also installed?

It seems csh scripts that contain "blah blah >> ~user/file"
does not work, that is, a command that "cats either ">" or ">>" to
a tilde - user - filename. The file is created, but is zero length.

I tried the same test on a 5.1a PK2 and it works just fine.

Example: cat file1 file2 > ~adm/junk. junk will be zero length.

This is serious...
Thanks for any replies!
