Bash is not an option so I could do it in ksh, but I really want to avoid
needing a script for this as that turns into an extra dependency in
delivering that script as part of the program that will access the OS to do
this.

I could clean this up on the return to the program.  I was just hoping for
something as clean as the Windoze version of this.  Yes amazingly this was
easier in windoze
