Hello Unix-PC Wizards,

	Question:Problem

		I have just been given an account on a 386 box running
	ESIX.  The shell of choice seems to be Korn, so I would naturally
	like to use it.  I am used to Pyramids flavor of BSD and CSH, so I 
	am rather inexperienced at Korn.

		Simply put, I am trying to set up my environment, so that
	I can make use of the history in EMACS mode.  I have set the emacs
	flag on { set -o emacs } and set vi off {set +o vi} yet I still can't
	make use of the familiar ^P or any of the other emacs commands.

		What gives?
		I have read the "man" pages o KSH, and have followed what seems
	like a logical course of expirmentation to try and solve this problem.
	Can anyone shed any light on this area for me?

		I am really stumped. ;=(

						Tanx,
						Z-Raisin
