if you are familiar with Linux/Unix there are ports avalible from different shells like bash and zsh. If you'd like to have a complete environment of Linux/Unix stuff I can recommend using cygwin from http://www.cygwin.com

Guys,
I've installed perl at home on my W98 system.
There are many reasons why I want to stick with w98, so changing OS is not an option.
The problem is, that I use the command prompt a lot when writing/debugging scripts, but the w98 prompt is really crap. It won't let you specify the size of the window and buffer, etc.
So, has anyone found a way around this, or found a suitable alternative?
I tried copying cmd.exe from a w2k system onto it, but it wouldn't run.
Thanks.
