On a multi-user boxes communicating at the command line via ytalk is the way to go. Much much better than regular "talk". > Removed package pdksh We have a large tutorial that introduces and explorers the features of various shells that includes coverage of pdksh. I also know of quite a few gray beards that swear by ksh. Having ksh or a ksh clone has pretty much been a given on any Unix or Linux box for a couple decades now. Breaking this expected behavior now would be extremely unfortunate. Doesn't seem worth it save ~350kb. If you want to save 350kb, then pick one of the following and ditch it instead: /usr/share/wallpapers/alien-night.jpg /usr/share/wallpapers/kiagara.jpg /usr/share/wallpapers/Island-of-Elba.jpg 20 years of tradition or alien night? When brining it back, please consider replacing pdksh with the official ksh? http://www.kornshell.com/ It is licensed under the CPL 1.0 which is an OSI approved license.
