I'm a little out of touch with ksh, never used it much.  But here are  
a list of things that a plurality if not a majority of developers  
coming over from Linux are going to expect to work, and regard it as  
a bug if they don't.

1. !!
2. bg/fg
3. control-R to search through history
4. up-arrow/down-arrow Just Work with history
5. pushd/popd
6. autocomplete on tab
7. %1
