Anyone interested in a free korn shell to run on Win32, check out

http://www.theodorezacharia.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/sw/index.html

for TZsh. It is small (71k zip) and looks promising so far (I have only
just started playing with it). It is very comfortable for me as I come
from an Amiga background where I had at least half a dozen Csh-type
shells from which to choose.

I don't shell out very much these days but when I do it is nice to have
a comfortable shell. It supports aliases, command history, etc.

The only problem so far is that some zips are always a few bytes short
when downloaded so I can't get the man pages.

If anyone knows of any [small] comparable shells I'd be interested.

HTH,

And in reply to self...

Check out

for another *small* nifty cli shell (lsh). It is *very* responsive and
looks good though I haven't played with it much yet.
