What were you trying to do?
Use zwrite.
What's wrong:
zwrite says "Type your message now. End with control-D or a dot on a
line by itself." But when I type two consecutive control-D's (not at
the beginning of a line), zwrite acts as if I'm done typing, and sends
off the message as is.
What should have happened:
I should be able to type as many control-D's as I want without having
the message sent, as long as they don't occur at the beginning of a
line.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
zwrite(1)
