Concerning pdksh: Unless it has been fixed (and I don't think it has), it is too buggy to be used for scripting. If you are going to download and install ksh, get The Real Thing.
If you have way too much time on your hands and want a monster shell -- the biggest of them all, get zsh; it's strictly for certified geeks as evidence by your consumption of Twinkies and Mountain Dew. -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.net -- Author: <[EMAIL PROTECTED] INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- 858-538-5051 http://www.fatcity.com San Diego, California -- Mailing list and web hosting services --------------------------------------------------------------------- To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
