I'm having do do some work on NT4.0, instead of my usual w95.

Is there a work around for bash problems, or is there an alternative
unix type shell which does work?  Does the Cygnus offering work properly
under NT?

bash canot cope with long file names in NT (doc says NT is missing the
LFN api) and when I launch tkinfo, the bash box hangs up and does not
recover when the tkinfo exits.
