System name:		euphrosyne
Type and version:	CVAXSTAR 7.3H (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		SM


What's wrong:
/mit/brlewis% ( olc hours ; olc motd ) > /tmp/fil2 &
[3] 12660

/mit/brlewis%
[3]  + Suspended (tty output) ( olc hours; olc motd ) > /tmp/fil2


What should have happened:
olc should not pipe output through more when stdout isn't a terminal.


Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	man 3 isatty
