With ksh, even on 4.0, 'set -o emacs' is pretty reasonable. Tab
complete, tab-tab to show multiple choices, Ctrl+R and type to search
history, etc.
Tab-tab works out of the box? I'm used to this for pdksh:
set -o emacs
bind '^I'=complete
bind '^I^I'=complete-list
My question is, do we modify the ksh source or put it in /etc/profile. If we
put it in /etc/profile how do we test for ksh? If it is set -o emacs then
we don't need to.
