I bet you're talking about some shell that uses commands that are the same as UNIX commands, correct? Does it allow bidirectional piping? Even if it does, it's not UNIX. Heck, even in MSDOS you can rename a lot of the standard command files, so it LOOKS like UNIX. It's still not UNIX. (Don't tell me about Xenix, I know about it) Just trying to straighten out the confusion between REAL UNIX (or the many real 'variants' of UNIX.. BSD, AT&T, etc) and some shell that LOOKS like UNIX. -- / Apple II(GS) Forever! unknown@ucscb.ucsc.edu \ \"If cartoons were meant for adults, they'd be on in prime time."-Lisa Simpson/
