How was that again? On all HP-UX systems (well, not the 9.x that didn't
use sw*) all the base stuff _is_ in swlist. By definition, I'd say,
unless the IPD is hosed.

Then again, bash isn't in the base set anyway, being a GNU add-on.
(It _might_ still be in the swlist, though.)

(Try "swlist -l file OS-Core" ... there's grep, egrep and fgrep in there
for an example.)

And if you want to list stuff that's been installed without using
swinstall, well, that depends on what you used to install ... if all
else fails there's always "find /" ;-/
