Subject: Core dump whenever I open a file
Using xsh 2.1.6 (the list of version numbers seems to be out of date in the bug tracker), I execute a command such as $x := open "foo.xml" and it core dumps: $ xsh --------------------------------------- xsh - XML Editing Shell version 2.1.6 --------------------------------------- Copyright (c) 2002 Petr Pajas.

Thanks for the report. I cannot reproduce this on my system, but I have another report with a similar problem. As a workaround, you may switch from Gnu to Perl readline, with export "PERL_RL=Perl"

Thanks for the workaround. I can't currently reproduce the bug; since I'm using an Ubuntu 12.04 system, which is constantly being updated at present, something may have been fixed.
