Message-ID: <126127@linus.mitre.org> Date: 13 Nov 90 15:49:46 GMT Sender: usenet@linus.mitre.org Distribution: usa Organization: The MITRE Corp., Bedford, MA Lines: 4 Does POSIX.1 require that a shell interface exist. Suppsoedly the 1003.1 book has shell examples in the appendix....which brought up the question about shell requirements. I do know that dot 2 is working the issue.. but don't know how that reflects on the dot 1 appendix....any thoughts?
