It was pointed out to me, by Tom, ihnp4!hoqax!twb, that I misled him
concerning the Korn shell on the PC 6300 PLUS -

Tom is, strictly speaking, accurate.  The Aspen implementation is for
Microport System V/AT which is binary compatible with the PC 6300 PLUS.
In order to install it on the PLUS you must change step 3 of the installation
procedure from:
mount /dev/dsk/fd048 /mnt -r         to read:
mount /dev/dsk/f0d9dt /mnt -r        and likewise step 7 from:
umount /dev/dsk/fd048                to read:
umount /dev/dsk/f0d9dt

Apologies to anyone who was misled.  Just because it seemed obvious to me,
it apparently wasn't obvious.  I would add that there are some other things
involved, environment changes, etc. to install it so I would restrict my
endorsement to those who folks who don't mind doing them.  I stand by my
opinion that it's a *GREAT* tool, it makes life much more pleasant.
