The korn shell is available from Mortice Kern Systems as part of
a package with awk and crypt.  Discount houses offer this at $105
or so.  I have NOT tried it.  I do NOT know whether it will run
on 8086 Xenix.  

One has to wonder why they bundled it with awk and crypt.

I do not have the Xenix version but own the MSDOS implementation.
It is worth every penny.

Perhaps SCO should get its corporate buns in motion and work out
a deal with MKS.
