HPUX default shell is POSIX - so korn fuctions will work.

Re: Functions in other shell different korn shell

i know that only with korn shell you can make functions , in .profile file you have declare funcionts to be used by other scrpts... can i programate functions (files located in a path) with /usr/bin/sh ?? or is only for korn shell?
in fact there is a variable to be declared the path where are the functions .

Thanks, Manuales

Hi Manuales:

See the man pages for 'sh-posix'. Yes, you can define functions and aliases. See the 'typeset -f' and 'FPATH' variable, in particular.

Regards!
