I found something strange about the `(commands)' construct. Try this:
bash -c '(cd .. | ls)'
You will see the listing of the *current* directory, not of its parent,
from `ls'. I've tried this with a Unix `sh', and it works the same, but
`ms_sh' does produce the listing of the parent (and I do find this latter
behavior more intuitive). What am I missing here?
Btw, if you replace `|' with a `;', it lists the parent directory.
