The programming/scripting language that incorporates the most frustrating
combination of deficiencies and awesome power is probably the POSIX shell with
accompanying utilities, which all exist in several variant implementations. Due
to said power, the shell refuses to die as a scripting language. But when
scripters are bitten by arcane grammar pitfalls, defective tutorials on the
web, or shell functionality deficits, then 'use a real programming language
instead' is generally the mantra.
Enter modernish, a new vision on shell scripting. Modernish aims to provide a
standard library that allows for writing robust, portable, readable, and
powerful programs for POSIX-based shells and utilities. It can solve the shell
language problems mentioned above, and many more. With modernish, you'd almost
think the shell has become a modern programming language!
The library builds on the POSIX 2018 Edition standard, so it should run on any
sufficiently POSIX-compliant shell and operating system. But it also takes
advantage of certain shell-specific enhancements if it detects them.

Bash Commander is a fork of GNU Bourne Again Shell. It's main feature is
a visual two-panel mode, much like Midnight Commander and other text-mode
visual shells.

Also add bashc to the CONFLICTS section of shells/bash.

The whole ports tree has been enforced on libncursesw (widechar) version for a while.
With the exception of a few ports including bash.
This is even more problematic in the case of bash because it links to libreadline which is
linked to libncursesw.so
Shellwords manipulates strings according to the word parsing rules of the UNIX
Bourne shell.
The shellwords() function was originally a port of shellwords.pl, but modified
to conform to the Shell & Utilities volume of the IEEE Std 1003.1-2008, 2016
Edition.

Note: The default setting is for git.FreeBSD.org only and needs to be
overridden and rebuilt for being useful in other setups.
Support of config file and other improvements will be available in
the upcoming updates.
