    Problem Summary TSD4C.00013 Test method is flawed.
    Problem Text
    This test uses expect to execute commands and generate a corresponding
    history file. It ends with the following

    send "echo ---end---\r"
    expect "*\r\n$ "
    send "fc -l \$cmdnum > fc_out_28\r"
    expect "*\r\n$ "
    send "exit 0\r"
    expect eof
    exit

    The test then checks to see if

    echo ---end---

    is the last command in the history file.

    This is wrong. Since the echo and fc commands are both executed
    interactively the fc command will be the last command in the
    history file.

    This problem causes the test to FAIL.
