Re: time | echo

Dear Zsh workers,

while rereading Tom Christiansen's why.not.csh at
<URL:http://language.perl.com/versus/csh.whynot>, I tried his example

  time | echo

which gives a nonsensical error message when using csh. However, zsh
3.1.9 dumps a core[1] on this one (FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT). I guess there is
a better way of signaling the error :)



{pts/1}% time | echo
shell  0,00s user 0,00s system 0% cpu 6,058 total

children  0,00s user 0,00s system 0% cpu 6,058 total

This is with 4.0.2 as comes with Mandake cooker. You may consider to upgrade.
