I havent been following the list too closely so my apologies in advance if
this topic has already been raised.
A nice feature of later versions of ksh (the version that comes with
UWIN for example), is the floating point arithmetic evaluation. For example
% echo $(( 1. / 2 )) # float math
0.5
% echo $(( 1/2 )) # fixed math when no floats
0
% echo $(( log(2) )) # math functions avaliable
0.69314718056
Wish zsh would do this.
