Bad and Good news... The CSH is included with SVR4, but again is not in a healthy state. I don't expect to receive a substantially more robust release from AT&T, so we will be doing some repair work here. No schedule yet. The SVR4 KSH, however, does have BSD style job control. Yes, ^Z, fg, bg and the rest! There is still no pushd or popd, though there are several ways to do something similar. I have finally become a KSH convert, though I still also use CSH at home on my Microport System V/AT system. More shell news as it develops... R&D at Microport

It doesn't have history, but then there are those who prefer to have stuff like history in something like a pseudo-tty-based front end.... >There is still no pushd or popd, though there are several >ways to do something similar. Several of which have been posted to the net, and some of which are even called "pushd" and "popd". Said shell functions have been invented several times....
