Tests can be assigned categories to restrict what program they are applied to (eg, pdksh, ksh88, etc.). The following are a list of names to be used for various shells (to keep things consistent):

    sh          generic         any v7 bourne shell like thing
    sh-v        generic         any system V bourne shell like thing
    ksh         generic         any ksh
    posix       generic         basic posix shell
    posix-upu   generic         `user portability utility' options
    sh-v7       specific        the real v7 bourne shell
    sh-sysv     specific        the real sysv bourne shell
    pdksh       specific        public domain ksh
    ksh88       specific        at&t ksh88
    ksh93       specific        at&t ksh93
    bash        specific        GNU bourne-again shell

The idea is to categorize all the tests according to the `best match' (most generic thing). All generics that apply should be specified. Generally, at most one specific shell will be given.

At the moment, most (all) tests have not been categorized (any volunteers?).
