Re: Anybody using the pd-ksh Korn shell on a production Linux box?

Anybody using the AT&T ksh that Gregory mentioned? I'd be curious to hear how it runs, especially in a production environment.

Re: Anybody using the pd-ksh Korn shell on a production Linux box?

I've never actually used it; however
it's basically the reference
implementation of ksh. The author
of the ksh on the AT&T site is David Korn,
who is the "Korn" in Korn shell (aka ksh).
You can't get any Kornier than that.

I believe ksh shells shipped by Unix
vendors typically descend from Korn's
original ksh88, so I guess to be totally
accurate the HP-UX ksh is a sibling of the
ksh93 on the AT&T site.
