would be nice, i might be able to get them back...

yes ; i ran xtail to be able to track the xterm.
(ps aux|grep xterm |wc -l = 197)

it works too with perl or anything else.

|I love zsh by the way. :)

<lame mode> do you mean there is others shells ? </lame>

are you able to reproduce the bug ?

thanks
