It's on it's way - really it is!
Actually I used to use Coherent and it is good for a "first" Un*x or
Un*x for the very timid. The worst thing about it for programming is
that if it has a bug you have to wait for the next release - and it
does have some "silly" bugs! (most annoying was that (in the release I
used) many of the Curses functions listed did't work! (yes I use
curses))
