Korn shell, anyone?
« on: November 09, 2006, 12:12:13 pm »
I might be hired to teach a 4-day course on Unix, which is done with the Korn shell and Solaris. 

However, I've never used Korn shell.  I lied and said I had.  Oops.... but if it's Unixy, I can learn it fast. 

Anybody here have any significant experience with using Korn-shell?  Any pointers/gotchas to look out for?  Any suggestions? 

My plan is to find a web tutorial and go through it, then change my default shell to ksh and live my normal life, if I get this gig.  Woo! :)

Odds are you won't have to explain much about the korn shell.

Install solaris, man korn.

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

Actually, Korn was the first thing he asked me about, before even asking about Solaris experience.  So I wouldn't be too sure...

I'll know more about this later, we'll see what it look like.  If I get to teach philosophy and history of UNIX, then I'm totally in.  That's the best part.
