I am looking for any sort of cshell for the pc that will compile with the lattice c compiler or turbo-pascal or assembler. A bourne shell look-alike would also be ok (but I would love to have history). Does anybody have PD programs for this or other things that I have not thought of? I have to stop using Xenix for a while and do some pc-stuff on the DOS side....and I hate dos. thanks a lot in advance lizzy caip!unirot!liz sommers@rutgers.edu

A bourne shell look-alike >would also be ok (but I would love to have history). Allen Holub of Dr. Dobb's Journal has written an 'sh' for the PC. It's a hybrid between Bourne and C-Shell ... it looks sorta like Bourne but has command history. He wants $29.95 for it, including source code. It's been written in Microsoft C, which isn't Lattice but should convert fairly easily. For another $29.95 you can get a few unix-like utils such as 'ls', 'grep', etc. ... source code, too. I think there'd be a discount for both together (something like $49.95 for both). You should call first and get the latest info on it, as I happen to know Allen Holub keeps improving it, but Dr. Dobb's may not have the latest and greatest version. They have a toll-free number, but that might only be for orders and the people there may not be up on the technical details. That number is (800) 528-6050, ext 4001. You could probably write Allen Holub direct care of Dr. Dobb's: Dr. Dobb's Journal 501 Galveston Dr. Redwood City, Calif. 94063 Also ... there is a PD C-Shell for the PC. It's pretty good, as far as I can tell, but I haven't received the most up-to-date version yet. It also comes with source code. The author (whose name escapes me) asks a $25.00 donation if you like it, and doesn't mind public postings. It's written, I believe in Aztec C, but again, I believe it won't take a lot of hacking to get it through Lattice. As soon as I receive it, I'll post it here. Stay tuned ...
