If you had ; instead of | between the commands, then I could see it working. $ cd /proc ;cat version Linux version 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 (mockbuild@) (gcc version 4.3.0 20080428 (Red Hat 4.3.0-8) (GCC) ) #1 SMP Thu Jun 18 12:47:50 EDT 2009 But it still seems like far more messing around than's needed. If you want to read that file, simply do so. i.e. cat /proc/version I see no point in changing the current working directory to /proc. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
