I'm using Bash release 2.04.7. on Windows ME. checkwinsize This option is supposed to update the LINES variable. I made a little command-line program to change screen height, but LINES is never actualized. It is 25 no matter the size of the window. nocaseglob This option is supposed to enable case-insensitive glob expansion. But the option is automatically disabled each time a glob expansion is done. So: $ shopt -s nocaseglob $ shopt nocaseglob nocaseglob on $ echo *.sh history.sh $ echo *.SH *.SH $ shopt nocaseglob shopt off
