Error Programming in ksh and not in bash
Hi all....

I was wondering if there is a lot of differences between /bash and ksh programming.

Im learning about bash programming, but all what I had read in this forum, points me to learn more about ksh over bash. Is that right and why?

Unfortunately, I can’t write ksh progs on my work, cause it was blocked and its not in the /bin directoy Smilie

Well.... is it really so different bash from ksh ?

Thanks a lot.........
