Message-ID: <4278@ecs.soton.ac.uk> Date: 3 Oct 90 12:57:10 GMT Organization: University of Southampton, UK Lines: 14 I realise this is a bit of an open question, but ... I would be very grateful for any pointers or hints as to where I can find out what different shells exist, and what their various pros and cons are. The ones I know of are simply: sh csh bash ksh Are there others? Where are they principally available from? (I've had difficulty locating ksh for SunOS Unix - is it restricted?) Many thanks, Tim
