Re: [PATCH] sh/ksh init: don't initialise lowercase parameters

I'm guessing histchars got that way round in some kind of mistaken
link up with compatibility with csh, which tends to deal only
with lower case variables.  But that's just a guess, don't think
it really matters.

OK. For what it's worth, I did verify my patch doesn't change init in csh mode. Both lowercase 'histchars' (as on tcsh) and the uppercase variant are initialised, as before.

Thanks,
