There are a lot of Public-domain Unix shells for MS-DOS on the local
bbs's here.  I have examined conch, shell1.2 and ms_shell1.62.
ms_shell is a great Bourne-shell interpretter and has history
substitution but no FILE NAME expansion.  File-name expansion (from
bash, Sun-OS, Ultrix, and post 4.3 BSD Unix's (modern BSD C-shells) is very
secuctive.  I have become used to banging that <ESC> key to expand long file
names automatically.

Could someone point me at a C-shell (preferably PD) on dos which has
file-name expansion?  I'd be much obliged.
