in reply to Confusing system call

That looks like csh syntax (the ">&" part). Change it to system("time $RUNHOME/$jobfile > $RUNHOME/gcp_${FilName}_${total}.gs.out 2>&1 &"); ...but that shouldn't have worked anywhere as system command are not supposed to be run via csh. Oh well.

    Well on Linux I am on a t-shell, not a regular C-shell. On AIX I was on a C-shell. I am still having some shell-based trouble, but that is nto for this group.

    Thanks for your help
