The MKS toolkit published by Mortice Kern Systems 
							 35 King Street North
							 Waterloo, Ontario
							 Canada  N2J W9 
							 (519) 884-2251

is a korn shell and a set of *NIX like utilities (more, grep,ls,etc.)
You can replace command.com with the korn shell making your machine feel
very *NIXy or you can just use the utilities just like programs such as dir
and format, etc.  The phone number and address are taken from the inside
page of the manual.  If they have changed, sorry.

Discalimer:  I am not associated w/ MKS other than as a customer.  But I
like their product :-)
