Well, I'm beginning to think bashshould have been called the
Bad Attitude SHell.   But I reserve judgement (I'm pretty
sure I must be doing something stupid).   (PS. I can't to
see Howard's implimentation with rtx....)

Ok, I can't do anything with bash.  I am happy to see the
builtin commands work, and the ALT key too.  But, the best I
could do for cd was to change to a disk.  Any attempt to
change into a directory failed.  This is odd since the TAB
would complete the name ok. (But it put a space after it as
if it were a file adn not a dir).  Also, I can't get it to
run any file either in my path or fully declared. (Yes I
even appended the appropriate extension...hmmm).  Lastly,
each time I start it up, it executes the history file. (This
I uinderstand since it gets cut off after a few characters
and the shell probably thinks its the startup file.  I
haven't installed my startup scripts yet...)

Anyone else getting this to work?

Joe
