Does anyone have any idea why I'm not finding it? ksh93 is not in the packages because the license is so incomprehensible that nobody is sure if it is allowed to put the binaries on the CD-ROM. > Is that a different version of ksh?

Yes, ksh93 and pdksh are different versions. ksh93 is the "real" thing, while pdksh is basically an attempt to write a free shell that is compatible to ksh. It is only recently that the source code to ksh93 has been released. -- <Insert your favourite quote here.> Erik Trulsson ertr1013@student.uu.se To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
