i'm finally annoyed enough about this to just ask ... on a regular
basis, i mistype a command and (predictably) get:
bash: xxx: command not found...
but, quite often, rather than getting a bash prompt back immediately,
there is a loooooooong pause, as i wait, and wait, and wait for a new
prompt, finally running out of patience and breaking with ^C to get a
new prompt.
what in the name of mutt is bash doing all that time? if there's no
such command, why the long pause in giving me a new prompt?
