 Well, since we just went through this in one of the groups I read (this one?),
and I am also running ksh for my login, this was the method that I liked the
best.  Put into your .profile (or the file that ENV is set to):

c() {
	cd $*
	PS1="${PWD}: "
}

  And use "c <dirname>" to change directories.
