    To the Hunt men! Bash out his innards!
    Bash-1.07 executes finely on our SuN.       
    1.08, though, I hear is suffering from a family related disease like
    its dear papa 1.05. 

    Bash is still the BEST shell! (keep working Brain and Chet!)
    
    However, zsh is looking better as well.
