I am starting to write korn shell scripts.  I would like to disable the
execution of the file pointed to by the ENV parameter when entering the
script.  How is this done?  I can do it in a csh script by starting the
file with:

	#!/bin/csh -f

I tried this in the korn script but, anything I put in causes it to go
into an interactive shell:

	#!/bin/ksh -DENV=
	#!/bin/ksh -s -DENV=
	#!/bin/ksh -DENV="/dev/null"

Even defining another parameter this way causes an interactive shell to
start:

	#!/bin/ksh -DANOTHER=


Is there a mailing list (not newsgroup) for which this question might be
more appropriate?

Does anyone know if a HP mailing list exists that is fed from
comp.sys.hp?

Thanks.
