running scripts within the current c-shell

[JD Runyan]

It is hard to make the argument either way.  Most of the commercial 
vendors ship with ksh as the default.  I worked with a guy who was 
100% AIX, and he would swear up and down that nothing compared to
ksh, even when I showed him that bash could do the same thing, and 
often the same way.  KSH is a good shell, but it is supported by
one organization.  PDKSH copies the functionality, but I wouldn't 
count on that continuing as Commercial UNIX becomes more linux like.
That is the best argument I would give.
