Don't forget to do all the DOS commands too :-) I've been doing this on Solaria (SunOS 4.1) for years... # ls -l /usr/local/bin/dir -rwxr-xr-x 1 jgreco 187 Sep 10 1992 /usr/local/bin/dir # cat /usr/local/bin/dir #! /bin/sh - ( echo echo "The UNIX command to list files is \"ls\". For more information on the" echo "workings of \"ls\", type \"man ls\" at a shell prompt." echo ls -al $* ) | more Not to mention, "cls", "copy", "era/erase", "fc", "find", "ren", "type", etc... anybody interested in my set of scripts, let me know. ...
