[PD] more compilation probs

[Matthew Williams]

one more thing ... can anyone tell me why when using the "wish' shell  
and i type in 'sudo'  it asks for my password but it skips right over 
it and goes to the next command line"

% sudo install
password:
%

Thats what i get .  It will not let me type my password.

weird,   matt
