Hi,

is there anywhere a comprehensive list of differences between ksh88 and ksh93?

It would be useful to know what parts of existing scripts must be changed to 
work also in ksh93.

E.g. from the test function

    X=88 ; f() { typeset X=93 ; } ; f ; print $X

posted elsewhere I assume I must change the syntax for all my functions from

functioname() {
  functionbody
}

to 

function functionname {
  functionbody
}

to ensure that local variables defined with typeset are still local variables 
if running in ksh93.

regards

Bernd
