For those who were interested in command line functionality... I collect Macintosh shells / command line apps that look (something) like *nix and run alongside the MacOS without rebooting; it's a hobby :-) I've got MacShell, nShell (and nShell Pro) and Mac06 - all free; MachTen (commercial) (oh, and MPW ;-) Mac06 is less well known (it doesn't turn up in many web searches). The author is trying to make a POSIX compatible OS to run as an app under MacOS. He doesn't include perl yet ... :) If you're interested in this sort of thing, take a look at http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/Nikolaus_Schaller/mac06.html The latest version of Mac06 is now out. If you've got a *nix shell for the Mac that I don't know about, please tell me about it! --- Vicki Brown, vlb@cfcl.com |\ _,,,---,,_ Journeyman Sourceror ZZZzz /,`.-'`' -. ;-;;,_ Scripts & Philtres |,4- ) )-,_. ,\ ( `'-' http://www.cfcl.com/~vlb '---''(_/--' `-'\_) P.O.
