    Hi,
    I'm developing application for AIX which automates tasks. I need to use the source code of the commands of AIX but I know that AIX is a closed source product. Can anyone tell me is this set of commands is going to work http://www.busybox.net/ for me or the AIX commands are custom modified from the standard UNIX commands?

    Regards
    Peter

    First, I should point out that AIX is UNIX!
    Second, what is the point of the source code it you have the commands that you can use. Am I missing the point!
    Third, AIX is POSIX compliance so open source applications shoul compile given the right compiler options but it seems like the hard way.

    Best of luck, Nigel Griffiths
