Douglas… We have not purchased your C shell since I am still lobbying with the powers that be…but, please feel certain that we will be buying your C shell for NT (on Alpha by the way). However. Other than that, I spoke with you briefly at Windows World Atlanta and I have come to the conclusion that you are indeed the kind of software developer that users, of the likes of myself, dream about. I know you don't let these complaints bother too much but I am impressed with your attitude in messages that I have read over the last year and that is sufficient for me to strongly recommend your software (BTW, I did play with the demo kit from the vendors CDROM). To me, having a c shell identical, in every respect, to UNIX, is not important. I can learn the differences and learn to use them. What is indeed important for a product such as a C shell is to know that it is a programmer who is behind it and who deeply cares about how users react to his product. Doug…Thanks for the csh on NT, even though we haven't gotten it yet. phil There is 1 Reply.
