Its probably too late to plead for ksh in the initial release of A/UX, but
if it isn't there it would be nice to have supported by Apple in the near
future.  Just realize that this would be a good bit of work for Apple since
ksh in its present version has significant problems with its buffer
allocation, ... and would have been another headache compounding their porting
problems.  Even having a tweeked version running on a Sun 3/50 there are
still occational problems running X windows and big stuff.

In another vein though, will there be such thing as ash (Apple shell)?
It would be really great to be able to do shell programing with access to the
toolbox, ...

Roll away the dew,
