   I wonder if anybody has ported bash 1.04 to HP-UX version 6.5, 7.0 or 3.1,
   that is, the versions with job control.

   The main problem is with jobs.c that seems to me to be very BSD specific,
   and probably needs a great deal of rewriting.

   If anybody has done this already please send me your patches (or modified
   files) to jhd@irfu.se.

   I guess I could do this myself, but I'm feeling lazy...

   Thanks in advance,

           Jan D.

i've done this with apparent success for a '300 running 6.5, and have
sent patches to brian.  the same code _almost_ works :-) on an 835
running what uname tells me is release `A.B3.10' (i thought it was
6.5), but there's still some problem that i think is in wait/2.
we haven't got 7.0 yet, please let this list know if anyone has done
the port, or i'll do it when we get it.

i'll send my patches to jan by private email.
