The KORN SHELL

I've been using the GNU Born Again SHell (BASH) for a few months now.
While I admit I'm no developer, it does seem to work for me.  It's got
functions, or whatever they call it, just like KSH, forground and
background processes and command line history and editing.  I'd love
to get a manual for it so I could delve deeper into it, but I don't
have the time or space to deal with tex, and as far as I know the
manual is not really formalized.  However it is enough like KSH, CSH
and SH for me to use it.  The only bug that bothers me, is one
concering the abort function "^g" in emacs.  It seems to cause some
sort of error bad enough to log me out.

It was not that hard to get it running either.
