Ok, let's solve this debate by saying, if you want  on
Minix, then you should write it. If you look back a few weeks, you'll
see that I posted an article asking for some system calls which haven't
been implemented on Minix yet, so I could do a port of my friend's tcsh
clone. Haven't noticed any replies, either!

Re: this shell is better than that, if you write  and
post it to this newsgroup, we'll be able to try it ourselves, and see
if it is better.

Right, now let's get back to Minix..
