Sorry, sent it out without finishing. The worst is "return". With ksh, ash, and dash, the script itself exits with status code 1 (presumably you are trapping it with trap -- exit, though). prompt$ bash k.sh exit foo prompt$ bash k.sh false foo status 1 prompt$ bash k.sh return foo k.sh: line 20: return: can only `return' from a function or sourced script status 1 prompt$ ash k.sh exit foo prompt$ ash k.sh false foo status 1 prompt$ ash k.sh return foo prompt$ ksh k.sh exit foo prompt$ ksh k.sh false foo status 1 prompt$ ksh k.sh return foo
