Description Tomas Smetana 2009-04-07 11:16:09 UTC

Description of problem:
The questions and misunderstandings about differences between ksh88 and ksh93 are among the most frequent issues the users run into when migrating from the old UNIX systems to Linux.  We should make it a bit easier for them by providing the COMPATIBILITY document.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ksh-20080202-10

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to find out where to find what are the differences between ksh88 and ksh93
  
Actual results:
There's nothing in the README file...
You end up searching the web.

Expected results:
The document is located in /usr/share/doc/ksh-20080202/COMPATIBILITY and you don't need to search for it anywhere else.

Additional info:
The document source is in: src/cmd/ksh93/COMPATIBILITY.
