   It seems not possible to return values over 255 with bash, a little   
   experimenting shows:   
      
   # bash -c 'exit 256'; echo $?   
   0   
   # bash -c 'exit 17664'; echo $?   
   0   
   # bash -c 'exit 0'; echo $?   
   0   
   # bash -c 'exit 1'; echo $?   
   1   
   # bash -c 'exit 3'; echo $?   
   3   
   # bash -c 'exit 255'; echo $?   
   255   
      
      
   Bye, Wilfred.
