I know about that. > If you really are thinking about providing a modified version of > the cygwin > DLL with ksh, then I hope you think again. It's a very bad idea. Sorry, that was not my intention. Never. I've put a lot of work into my fixes, but Cygwin development went off too fast for me to keep up pace. There's already a great interest in having ksh on Cygwin at Bell Labs.

Not so odd.

As you might know, David Korn and Glenn Fowler are working for AT&T. I am a freelancer, so there are no copyright problems. So we decided that they should work out the bug reports (some of which turned out to be bugs in their software), and I do the fixes. It was meant to prove that AST/ksh works on Cygwin, or, the other way round, Cygwin is capable to run AST/ksh. It does. q.e.d. So can we get down to discuss my fixes now?
