Run Script in K Shell using Source

Hi

While running a Shell Script in a K Shell using the source command

source <script_name>

It gives the error ..

source: not found.
Null message body; hope that's ok

Is it that the source command does not work in K Shell.
It works well in bash shell.

Use a dot:

. scriptname

source should be equivalent to the dot, my korn shell says "ksh: source: not found" also, maybe that source is an alias we haven't defined.

First, 'source' in bash doesn't run anything, but includes the code the file (much like #include in C)
Second, the Korn Shell (ksh) doesn't know 'source', but has '.', which works in bash just the same, eg:

. ./other_script
