Mk has run on Unix for a very long time, much longer than p9p has existed, and its default shell there has always been /bin/sh. On Plan 9 the default has always been /bin/rc. The p9p mk straddles both worlds. Either choice of default would have bothered some of mk's users. I'm sorry the one I picked bothers you. Russ
