Would you mind stating the source of this information? According to a posting by Alex White of MKS a few weeks ago, the MKS Toolkit does not contain any AT&T source code; the tools are complete re-implementations rather than ports of UNIX tools. We have two diametrically opposed statements here; I am inclined to believe Alex, and feel that contradictory statements need some documentation to be justified. -- Wolf N.
