Good God! No, the whole advantage of ksh is that it DOES NOT LOOK LIKE
csh but instead it is upwardly compatible with (standard) Bourne
shell. At the same time it provides most (or may be even all)
functions offered by csh, although sometimes you have to do things in
a somewhat different way to achieve the same effect. Definitely,
combining csh and ksh is a BAD idea.
