Re: for years I have been using korn shell
- Original Message - -What is everyone else using out there? -Do you think I should make an issue of this one? Paula, that mob is having you on. If they know even the most basics of Unix shell scripting, they should be using the comment convention as the first line of any of their scripts. As in: #!/bin/csh to make their code run in the C-shell NO MATTER what your shell might be. If they don't do that and expect you to use their shell, get on to them quick and as heavy as you can. That's just unacceptable in this day and age. I used the bourne shell for scripting almost exclusively until very recently. I'm now using Korn shell, even in Linux where it is not installed by default and bash seems the way to go.

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.

Re: for years I have been using korn shell
I think you should make an issue, because Korn Shell (/bin/ksh) is de-facto standard and the vendor should deliver either both shells (Korn and C) or only Korn. Allegedly, bash can assume both personalities, but if you need to modify the script, you need it to have it in Korn Shell language. Of course, the best thing to have would be an install script having #!/usr/bin/perl -w on the first line, but it would be too much to ask, wouldn't it? BTW, my spelling checker is offering the word Koran for as a correction of the word Korn.

RE: for years I have been using korn shell
We are using Korn and I have for years used C, borne etc. Now we are converting all to use Perl so we can only have one set of scripts to support over other platforms.. I supposed its a good Idea but like you I hate to keep changing when you are at expert level at one and have to start over.

RE: for years I have been using korn shell
For Linux, I use bash. For Unix (HP/Sun) accounts, I use Korn, where bash typically isn't available. I like either, but am tending to like bash more for the non-vi command line editing that uses cursor keys (I've been told that this is set -o emacs in Korn, but it shore don't work like that on Korn-88). For one 3rd party install, I use csh because that's what they require. And because of they way they have it setup, if I'm in Korn and execute their setup, it won't work. I have to change to csh first, then execute their setup. Just poorly written, IMHO.

RE: for years I have been using korn shell
Paula Ensure the first line of the file has something like #! /bin/csh I agree with Brian that if you're simply installing this application with no requirement to maintain it, then no worries. If you end up maintaining it, beware. C-shell superficially resembles bourne/korn shell, but actually differs in some critical aspects. Sneaky little things that can bite you when you least expect it. Originally c-shell was created to overcome some deficiencies in bourne shell, but when bourne evolved into korn, in my opinion that eliminated the need for c. Either way, have a little talk with your vendor's developers about what the heck they are doing. Dennis Williams DBA Lifetouch, Inc.

RE: for years I have been using korn shell
Rich So do you use bash for interactive or to write scripts? The trap many fell into (and apparently still fall into) is that cshell is excellent for interactive work, but isn't so great for scripting. That is the power of korn, a friendly interactive face and a powerful scripting capability. I'm just asking because I have a feeling I'll wind up on Linux some day.
