Seems like you are using bash from /bin/bash, that's the version that ships with Leopard. If you want to use the version of bash provided by MacPorts you would either have to change your terminal application to open /opt/local/bin/bash or set it as your login shell. Whereas the former is the safer and easier solution in my opinion. Rainer
