There's also "bash", GNU's "bourne-again" shell; it's sort of a
mish-mosh of sh and [t]csh.  I ported it to MINIX-386 and it runs
great, but like other GNU software it's BIG.  It's too big to
run under regular PC-MINIX...

Diffs available upon request...

[speaking of request, has anybody fixed the "premature shutdown" bug
in uucp yet?  It's driving me bonquers... but I don't want to reach
in and fix it if someone else is already doing so...]
