Thank you very much!  (I find it characteristic of our age be to thanking
someone who is a couple of miles away, here in Amsterdam, by posting a
message for 10,000 people worldwide to see, but I greatly appreciate having
POSIX compatible stuff.)

I just learned that Draft 9 of P1003.2 (shell & utilities) has been sent to
IEEE for distribution.  It can be ordered from IEEE's office in New York City.
