pkgsrc-wip/slackware_bash/DESCR
Michal Pasternak 9833990a19 Slackware base for pkgsrc - initial import.
These packages are based on slackware-current binaries.

slackware_base and its dependencies need some non-standard stuff (in terms
of wip/mk/linuxbin.pkg.mk) to install - basically, they handle their
installation stuff on their own.

slackware_gcc and slackware_tcsh are included as an example "extra" packages
for Slackware base - they are not needed for basic functionality, but as
bin/cp, bin/sh and other utilities are installed by the time slackware_tcsh
or slackware_gcc is installed, they can handle their installation only via
wip/mk/linuxbin.pkg.mk and nothing else

The GNU Bourne-Again SHell. Bash is a sh-compatible command
interpreter that executes commands read from the standard input or
from a file. Bash also incorporates useful features from the Korn
and C shells (ksh and csh). Bash is ultimately intended to be a
conformant implementation of the IEEE Posix Shell and Tools
specification (IEEE Working Group 1003.2).
