I solved that problem already via merging both Solaris and ksh93 libcmd, see http://polaris.blastwave.org/browser/on/branches/ksh93/gisburn/prototype002/m1_ast_ast_imported/usr/src/lib/libcmd/ - it seems to work perfectly and the risk of a namespace clash is IMO tiny since all the new symbols start with "b_" (and libcmd is a private library anyway so we (or better: Sun) control all consumers (and can fix them on demand) ... :-) ). ---- Bye, Roland -- __ . . __ (o.\ \/ /.o) roland.mainz at nrubsig.org \__\/\/__/ MPEG specialist, C&&JAVA&&Sun&&Unix programmer /O /==\ O\ TEL +49 641 7950090 (;O/ \/ \O;)
