Once Proiv is called it appears to default back to the Bourne shell.
Can I make it default to the KORN shell?

Hi,
Don't think it is possible to make it default to a specific shell but,
#X = SYSTEM('ksh -c ls')
Will make PROIV us the korn shell to run the ls command instead of the bourne shell.
Maybe this helps???

Rob is correct - the system command always runs 'sh'.
That is in accordance with XPG4-UNIX, ANSI C, POSIX.1, proposed POSIX.2 and BSD 4.3
Rob's solution is sensible although it does create an
extra process.
Consider using the
#!path/to/shell
convention at the beginning of your script.
Of course, none of the above is unique to PRO IV
Try shelling out of vi or emacs!
