What shells are available with SFU/Interix?
The ‘ksh’ (sh) and ‘tcsh’ (csh) shells ship with SFU 3.5. The ‘ksh’ shell is based on “pdksh” and has several Interix-specific modifications including a special treatment of the environment variable PATH_WINDOWS (refer to the ksh man page for details). An updated version of ‘tcsh’ is available from the /Tools Warehouse. Also available from the /Tools Warehouse are versions of ‘bash’, ‘zsh’ and ‘sch’. These are the most commonly used shells. If you have a shell that you are interested in please let us know. 3.06 Using Clearcase with Interix shows some problems. Correct. Clearcase did not properly write its driver. Sadly, too many people don’t seem to write filesystem drivers correctly. It’s documented in the DDK what is “correct” but the advice does not get followed. Clearcase users have experienced mounted filesystems “crashing”. A workaround has been found: add the mount point to your Interix PATH environment variable (export PATH=”${PATH}:/dev/fs/C/Program Files/Clearcase/bin”. Java
