I thought I'd be able to pick it up as the thread progressed, but I
still have no idea what a namespace even is. It sure sounds
complicated. I keep seeing structures because of the dots but I know
that's not the case. In a sentence or two, what is a namespace and why
do we want it? But I do remember vaguely that I once had a question
where the future solution was going to be just that. BTW interesting to
learn that ksh is still in active development, I thought it was on ice,
like bash.
