There are several versions of the Korn shell available to Linux. One is
the pdksh, which is compatible (for the most part) with the KSH88 spec.
It comes, I believe, with Red Hat.
You can also download the Korn shell from AT&T's site, but trying to get
it up and running is a challenge --- one that I have failed several times.
However, I have found that Slackware has a KSH93 compatible version,
available from
ftp://ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackware/slackware-8.0/slakware/ap1
It's the file ksh.tgz. Load it into the / directory, unzip it, and then
use the install.sh script. It will install into /bin.
So far, I haven't had much trouble with it.
