Here's a question for all you ksh wizards out there: (Are you listening
Mr. Korn???)

Unfortunately, ksh uses the word 'print' for the ksh builtin equivalent
of echo(1). My problem: we have a utility called print on the system
whose name can't be changed for political reasons. What I'd like to do
is somehow change the name of the builtin WITHOUT recompiling the code
so that 'print' will refer to the utility, and so that 'echo' can still
be aliased to use the ksh print builtin.

If you have a solution PLEASE reply by e-mail. I will summarize for those
interested.

Thanx.
