Most are similar to utilities in /usr/bin, but there are compatibility problems. The project team expects to work out these compatibility issues (by changing the AT&T built-in code and/or changing current Solaris utilities) over time. The project team will submit fast tracks to add compatible ksh93 built-ins as these issues are resolved. - Don Cragun > >-- >Darren J Moffat
