Hello Again,

	More questions.

1) it seems to do anything fancy (e.g. compile ksh), a different compiler
   besides ACK is needed.  Will someone send recommendations for other
   compilers?  I have seen mention of c68 and gcc.  c68 seems more stable
   from what I have read since there are problems with compiling the
   kernel.  also there was some question about where the 'official'
   version of the c68 package was to be found.  i would appreciate any
   info about these things.

2) i appreciate any recommendations for the various shells on minix.
   i use the csh at work and would like to stick with something similar.
   if this is not available i would not mind trying a ksh-type shell.
   i am not interested in learning anything that is not similar to
   commonly available ones.
