| Various bits of what is known about busybox shells, in no particular order. |

| hush: update on "sleep 1 | exit 3; echo $?" bug. |
| parse_stream_outer() repeatedly calls parse_stream(). |
| parse_stream() is now fixed to stop on ';' in this example, |
| fixing it (parse_stream_outer() will call parse_stream() 1st time, |
| execute the parse tree, call parse_stream() 2nd time and execute the tree). |
| But it's not the end of story. |
| In more complex situations we _must_ parse way farther before executing. |
| Example #2: "{ sleep 1 | exit 3; echo $?; ...few_lines... } >file". |
| Because of redirection, we cannot execute 1st pipe before we parse it all. |
| We probably need to learn to store $var expressions in parse tree. |
| Debug printing of parse tree would be nice too. |

| hush: Ctrl-C and Ctrl-Z for single NOFORK commands are working. |
| Memory and other resource leaks (opendir) are not addressed |
| (testcase is "rm -i" interrupted by ctrl-c). |

| hush: "sleep 5 | sleep 6" + Ctrl-Z + fg seems to work. |
| "rm -i" + Ctrl-C, "sleep 5" + Ctrl-Z still doesn't work |
| for SH_STANDALONE case :( |
| |

| hush: fixed non-backgrounding of "sleep 1 &" and totally broken |
| "sleep 1 | sleep 2 &". Noticed a bug where successive jobs |
| get numbers 1,2,3 even when job #1 has exited before job# 2 is started. |
| (bash reuses #1 in this case) |
| |

| hush: "sleep 1 | exit 3; echo $?" prints 0 because $? is substituted |
| _before_ pipe gets executed!! run_list_real() already has "pipe;echo" |
| parsed and handed to it for execution, so it sees "pipe"; "echo 0". |
| |

| hush: removed setsid() and made job control sort-of-sometimes-work. |
| Ctrl-C in "rm -i" works now except for SH_STANDALONE case. |
| "sleep 1 | exit 3" + "echo $?" works, "sleep 1 | exit 3; echo $?" |
| shows exitcode 0 (should be 3). "sleep 1 | sleep 2 &" fails horribly. |

| lash, hush: both do setsid() and as a result don't have ctty! |
| Ctrl-C doesn't work for any child (try rm -i), etc... |
| lash: bare ">file" doesn't create a file (hush works) |
