hello again out there ...
hopefully this is not an incredibly stupid question -- i have just purchased
isc 2.21 workstation developer package ... i have seen repeated references
on the net to the korn shell (ksh) on isc 386/ix but i don't seem to have it.
my package is actually the 2.2 core base plus the 2.21 upgrade (and other
misc. updates) ... am i supposed to have ksh?? am i loosing my mind??
any help would be appreciated!!

ISC has never included the korn shell as part of it's distribution. See question 25 on the FAQ as to how to get it. If you don't have a copy of the FAQ for this group, let me know and I will send it to you. -- I guess these are the views of VTI - since it is my consulting company. Conor P.

Ksh doesn't come with ISC UNIX 2.2. You have to buy it either from Aspen Technologies for ~150 US or so, or else pay thru the nose to get it from the AT&T Toolchest. Alternatively, you can go and get a PD shell like tcsh, bash or ash. I *really* like tcsh, and recommend it highly. The job control works quite well as does the command line editing and all the other zillion features. -- Arthur W.
