[mod.newprod] MKS Toolkit updated to version 2.1

steve%mks.waterloo.edu@CSNET-RELAY.ARPA (10/14/86)

Mortice Kern Systems Inc. is now shipping copies of the MKS Toolkit version
2.1, a package of over 70 programs that bring UNIX functionality to the
MS-DOS operating system.  The latest release includes a full implementation
of the UNIX screen editor vi, which will handle files of up to 50,000
lines.  MKS is also the first company to bring the most recent extensions
of awk to the market.  These extensions bring our implementation to
complete compatibility with the specifications defined in AT&T Bell
Laboratories Computing Science Technical Report No. 118, June 1985.
        Version 2.1 of the Toolkit is priced at $139.  It comes on 3 dsdd
5.25" diskettes accompanied by 200 pages of documentation.  Updates from
earlier versions of the Toolkit are available for $39.  All prices are
quoted in U.S. dollars.  Registered purchasers of version 2.1 will be sent
a free copy of the MKS implementation of the Korn shell when it becomes
available in December 1986.

The MKS Toolkit currently includes:
