Bad and Good news...
The CSH is included with SVR4, but again is not in a healthy state.
I don't expect to receive a substantially more robust release from AT&T,
so we will be doing some repair work here.  No schedule yet.

The SVR4 KSH, however, does have BSD style job control.  Yes, ^Z, fg, bg
and the rest!  There is still no pushd or popd, though there are several
ways to do something similar.  I have finally become a KSH convert, though
I still also use CSH at home on my Microport System V/AT system.

More shell news as it develops...
