1 Hi, I have Prefix installed on an iMac.
2
3 When I run nonexistent commands in a Prefix shell, they hang,
4 requiring ctrl-C to terminate.
5
6 me@iMac ~/ $ which abc
7 which: no abc in (/Users/me/Gentoo/usr/bin:\
8 /Users/me/Gentoo/bin:\
9 /Users/me/Gentoo/opt/bin:\
10 /Users/me/Gentoo/usr/sbin:\
11 /Users/me/Gentoo/sbin:\
12 /Users/me/Gentoo/usr/x86_64-apple-darwin12/gcc-bin/4.2.1:\
13 /usr/bin:\
14 /bin)
15 me@iMac ~/ $
16 me@iMac ~/ $ abc
17 ^C
18 me@iMac ~/ $
19
20 In a non-Prefix shell they just fail immediately:
21 $ which abc
22 $ abc
23 -bash: abc: command not found
24 $
25
26 Any ideas why?
27 Regards
