   I couldn't compile the system on my Solaris-PC, because configure wanted
   to use the "generic" system.

   I thought that simply changing it to use "solaris" instead would work and
   indeed it compiled, installed and could be run afterwards.

Well, that's amazing. We made no provision for x86 Solaris in 0.4.2 --
how pleasant it falls out for free under Sparc Solaris.

    Finally I want to thank you very much for providing scsh.  I have not used
    it yet, only read the manual and it looks like I will like to use it for
    lots of script programming. I have always been looking for a scripting
    language on Unix that is not as ugly as the shells or even perl.
    
Glad you like it.
