A great deal of the 'csh' was designed under the BSD environment, so finding csh on a straight SVRx machine is asking a lot. However, the 3b1 has the Korn shell... much nicer than csh.

Nonsense. Asking for csh on SysV is asking for relatively little.
There are quite a variety of ports of it out there (I've heard about 5
or 6 over the years), and I had thought that one of them was available
from AT&T to John Q Public; apparently, not so. Oh, well.
The one I use started out life as part of 2.8BSD (2.7? hmm, it's been
a long time...), in which I fixed a herd of bugs and added most of
4BSD's features. Unfortunately, mine is landlocked inside AT&T. But
there really *ought* to be one available to the 3B-buying public.

(for those crazy enough on my system to not want ksh :-)) I can arrange for the source to be available by floppy. -- that's the biz, sweetheart..... Randy Suess ..!ihnp4!chinet!randy

If it's real csh (i.e., ported from Berkeley), it is not public
domain. Don't redistribute without a license.

I didn't say "I stole this source from a berzekly system" Maybe this guy knows more what I have than I do. I guess I better return all the disks people mailed to me. Sorry guys. I will be sure to check with Karl before I post any more offers. -- that's the biz, sweetheart..... Randy Suess ..!ihnp4!chinet!randy

Hey people ... I don't really care who stole what csh!
I wanna know if the Smart Software is any good and what it does...
(All I know is SpreadSheet+WordProcessing+DataBase+ a little graphics).
