It has a lot of nice features that make the korn shell worth while (including emacs & vi style command history editing). Best of all.... it's free. Since ISC just added job control (to 2.2) you may want to keep in mind that any korn shell compiled for an earlier ISC probally will not support any job control. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- - maroC ddoT (backwords for a backward world) uunet!iti!todd "Shut up, be happy." - Ice-T "This time, The Revolution will not be televised..." - G.S.H -------------------------------------------------------------------------
