Hello, I've been charged with the task of finding the various life forms that call themselves "unix based" systems. Specifically, we are currently running Ultrix on an 11/750. I need to know the names, pros, cons, and prices of the various unix's shells that can live within VMS and the names, pros, cons, and prices of the unix's that run on micros (IBM's, Mac's, and workstations [any flavor]). If this looks like an effort on by bosses part to push unix off into its own little corner, you are right. Any pointers to where I can collect this information would be greatly appreciated. Please send mail to me directly. If asked to, I can post a summary of responses. Thanks again. Wendy Shutter shutter@ithaca.bitnet (or shutter%ithaca.bitnet@cunyvm.cuny.edu)

Please see the paper "Comparing UNIX Shells" by John Sebes. Source: UNIX Papers for UNIX Developers and Power Users. Edited by: Mitchell Waite Publishers: Howard W. Sams & Company. Few of the UNIX' I know are: SunOS, DG/UNIX, A/UX(Apple), ULTRIX (VAX) and IBM has a version that runs on their mainframes!!! I would appreciate if you could send me a copy/summary of the responses you receive in your search..... Good Luck... - nagesh pabbisetty.
