SUNWski does exist. According to Sun, it's only supported for Solaris
2.6 and 7. But in this case, the lack of support seems to be more like a
marketing decision because I've installed it on my Sol8 machine and it
works. The basic principle is not unlike egd so it doesn't seem to be
very OS version dependent.

Cheers,
Nils
