Excerpts from Philip Brown's message of Mon Apr 05 16:33:19 -0400 2010:

> actually, ksh virtually IS xpg4/bin/sh... but with extras too :)

Yes, but as stated earlier, I already know the extras in bash and am
not interested in learning the idiosyncrasies of yet another shell.
(Read: I'm not interested in doing everything in your view of 'the
solaris way.')  The only change I'd make from bash is to perl, for the
originally stated reason.  Learning ksh in 2010 is of _zero_ value to
_me_.
