There are a lot of us happy Berkeley/Sun users out here who are
sort of in a cloud as to what VR4 has and doesn't, largely because
people have been trying to foist off VR3 with csh and vi as "Berkeley
Enough."

I want job control.  Is it in there?  The apps like vi are smart enough
to catch the signal and go back into raw mode when they are
brought to the foreground and everything?

Works great?  Can say ^Z from within vi?

Your affirmative response will bring me great peace.  If you must
report the negative, it's not Amix's fault, right?

Jah Love, jimm
