You might want to look at the MKS Toolkit (Korn Shell) or at Polytron's 
PolyShell (modified Bourne Shell).

Mortice Kern Systems, Inc.

Polytron

Beaverton, OR  97006

800-547-4000

Both packages are carried by programming-oriented discounters, and it would
be cheaper to buy that way.

It seems to me that I've seen a comparative review somewhere recently, but
I don't recollect where.
