- tcsh-6.03 for OS/2-emx is quite unstable. I know this because I did the port.
- All that can be said is that some things work and alot of things don't.
-
- The history and command line editting works (but very long lines are garbled).
- It will not run DOS apps. Disk drives do not have states (if you change to
- d:, it does not remember where you were on c:).
-
- I ported it because I wanted command line editting and that seems to work.
-
- There remains much to be done, and anyone interested is certainly encouraged,
- but at this stage, I would not suggest it for the casual user. Think of it
- as something short of an alpha release.
-
- have fun.
