I should prefer public domain but am >-Graham Brand I found a package fron Mix software called the C Utilities Toolchest. It includes GREP, SED, TAIL, OD, PWD, CP, MVDIR, LS, CP, CPIO, etc.. It also includes a single user/ single process Borne Shell program. The whole package + 350 page manual is $19.95 from Mix (800-333-0330) with a 60 day money back guarantee. Source code is also available for $10.00 per module (text processing, file management, or Borne shell). It does not include AWK however. I have been quite happy with the package.

It has a very complete set of UNIX commands including AWK, vi, and K-shell. The K-shell even works with the ESC key, ie, you can hit escape and then use vi keys to move through the history file, just like a real UNIX system. The down side is that it is very expensive, around $175. But, you get what you pay for, I always say. At least you can be 100% certain that it is virus-free. That's worth the money alone to me. tk
