Korn Meets KoRN
I've had some Issues with KornShell. I wrote a quick unit Counting script, kind of a Dirty hack to try it out. "Let's Get This Party Started," I thought as I hit enter on my keyboard, eager to see the units print on my screen. But it couldn't even count to "4 U". Instead, it printed "./count.sh[3]: syntax error: `(' unexpected" and just stopped Dead. I tried again, thinking It's Gonna Go Away. Nope, No Way. Am I Going Crazy? Somebody Somewhere has to know what's going wrong. Before long, I realized I had to Wake Up and face the truth that KornShell is very particular about whitespace. Those of you who only write in modern languages and environments, I Wish You Could Be Me for just a moment to realize how nice you have it today and how you don't have to put up with Trash that can't parse without whitespace.
