I don't think it would be too much work to write them, since there doesn't seem to be much need for the more interesting features of POSIX compatible shells. The hard work will be to copy all the programs which have to do globbing, paging, etc. on their own. > Just use the scheme shell if you don't like Bourne shell. :-) Is that sort of like the DOS and VMS command lines?
