+KSH-93 is the most recent version of the KornShell Language described
+in "The KornShell Command and Programming Language," by Morris
+Bolsky and David Korn of AT&T Bell Laboratories. The KornShell is
+a shell programming language, which is upward compatible with "sh"
+(the Bourne Shell), and is intended to conform to the IEEE P1003.2/ISO
+9945.2 Shell and Utilities standard. KSH-93 provides an enhanced
+programming environment in addition to the major command-entry
+features of the BSD shell "csh". With KSH-93, medium-sized programming
+tasks can be performed at shell-level without a significant loss
+in performance. In addition, "sh" scripts can be run on KSH-93
+without modification.
