Thank you Larry, i forgot to say that i had already tried oinit. It is a
pretty good stuff for some needs, but it does not handle if/for loops
nor * wildcard, say, gzip -d *.gz and w/o a for i cant list (otherwise
by myself) some files i need. And unfortunely i need authetication to
provide a "read only" user for wireless stats, so onit doesnt fit my needs.

I decided to give esh a try, because it is small and uses a programing
language that may be useful, i will try to rewrite my etc/rc in Scheme
(well i dont know lisp, but lets try). If I realize i cant survive with
Scheme i think pdksh seems to run all ash scripts (it is 160k large).
Anyway if anyone have even a smaller suggestion than pdksh for ash-like
shell i appreciate :)
