In general, the drivers and fixes etc are for versions of Microport
Unix prior to 2.4 (286) or 3.0e (386).

ksh-e and ksh-v in the 286 area are ksh's with emacs or vi editing modes.
ksh in the 386 area has both modes enabled, use FCEDIT to choose.

There is a getty(386) which understands /etc/issue

format is for pre 2.4 systems

There is a vi (386) which is configured for LARGE files - it makes use of
the VMUNIX define and gets rid of most limits for file size ...
