The hosts that in use are either running RHEL kernel 2.6.8-xx with ksh88 or 2.6.9-xx with ksh93
This works perfectly for most hosts and I get the desired output:

Get the version of ksh you are using echo $KSH_VERSION and change all print statements to echo and see if that'd help...
echo $KSH_VERSION throws a blank line,
I use the vi mode, so an ESC and a CTRL +V gives me the version.
For simplicity, I'll narrow it down to the 93 versions and skip the 88 as host with the older versions are miminal.
I have a feeling its not the KSH version thats causing this.
The prompt works perfectly on:
Code:
Version AJM 93t+ 2010-02-02
It fails on
Code:
Version M 1993-12-28
Works well on some fails on others with:
Code:
Version AJM 93t+ 2010-06-21
On the hosts on which it failed, replacing print with echo ignores the newline character, throwing this output:
Code:
userx@hosty:~\n$

Did you also notice the line break in the middle of print shown in red above?
Are you sure that .kshrc has the same contents on both systems?
I'm sorry that line break is actually the STDOUT on the terminal. I should have corrected it before pasting it here.
The .kshrc has no line breaks and is consistent on all hosts.

My client`s system is an AIX 4.2 and using the Kron shell. I was just wondering if it is possible to have the prompt autocompletion enabled on it without changing shell version.
By autocompletion, I mean to automatically complete the filenames or directories we type in using the Tab key. (2 Replies)
