Work is mostly finished to make it fully +compatible with both POSIX and AT&T ksh (when the two don't conflict). + +Since pdksh is free and compiles and runs on most common unix systems, it +is very useful in creating a consistent user interface across multiple +machines. For example, in the CS dept. of MUN, pdksh is installed on a +variety of machines including Suns, HPs, DecStations, pcs running Linux, +etc., and is the login shell of ~5200 users. |
