All, Hope this isn't hopelessly newbie. I have FreeBSD up & running and it's beautiful, but I'm trying to acclimate myself to the 'ports' way of installing/updating (I've been using Debian GNU/Linux, and apt-get has spoilt me!) Anyway, last night I installed ksh93, having heard on slashdot 'bout the great capabilities of the 'real' Korn shell as opposed to the somewhat-hobbled pdksh. So now I have -both- pdksh and ksh93 on my system. The thing is, I can't figure out what starts when I type the command 'ksh.' It -used- to be pdksh, of course. Maybe it still is. All I know is that when I type 'man ksh' I get the man page for pdksh; when I type 'man ksh93' I get the man page for ksh93; when I type 'ksh93' I get 'command not found' and when I type 'ksh' ... something starts up. I guess I should just remove pdksh, yes? How do I determine what's what here?
