You've been suffering a lot from insults and disbelievers and I don't

I didn't post before because I thought I didn't have access to a Unix
box. Then I remembered that there is some old iron here. FWIW, here are
some samples from a session I just ran:

Cheers, Dave
Thanks Dave. While Unix and Linux are similar, there are a lot of
interesting differences. The standard version of ksh on Unix is the '88
version. AIX also has a ksh93, which is an early version of KornShell
1993, the POSIX compliant version. When AT&T sold Unix to Novell, they
did not include the AST package, which included ksh93. Until 2000, the
AST package was available as a separate license. For those who like
trivia, dtksh was written by David Korn's son.
The tractor is warmed up. Got to go and feed some hay to the cows. A
chilly morning at 6 degrees Fahrenheit. Cows will eat a lot today to
keep warm.
