I am pleased to announce that tcsh-6.17 is now available; this is a mainly a
bug fix release with the exception of these three feature additions:
10. always save the whole command, not just the first 80 chars of it.
4. Add autoexpand=onlyhistory (Don Estabrook, m66)
3. Add history in loops (Laurence Darby, m48)
Please consult the Fixes files for a complete list of changes.
Some highlighted changes (for full details, see the ChangeLog):
The command "emulate <mode> -c ..." evaluates an expression in a given
emulation. The emulation is sticky for functions defined within the
expression.
The variable CORRECT_IGNORE gives a pattern that can be ignored
in spelling correction. CORRECT_IGNORE='_*' ignores completion functions.
The option POSIX_ALIASES improves compatibility of aliases with other
shells.
The variable ZSH_PATCHLEVEL can be used to test for unreleased versions of
the shell; it is present but less useful in released versions.
The variables ZLE_REMOVE_SUFFIX_CHARS and ZLE_SPACE_SUFFIX_CHARS allow more
control over the way automatically removed suffixes are treated in
completion.

4. New Features in Readline
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This document details the changes between this version, bash-4.1-alpha,
and the previous version, bash-4.0-release.
1. Changes to Bash
a. Fixed bugs in the parser involving new parsing of the commands contained
in command substitution when the substitution is read.
b. Fixed a bug that caused the shell to dump core when performing programmable
completion using a shell function.
c. Fixed a bug in `mapfile' that caused it to invoke callbacks at the wrong
time.
d. Fixed a bug that caused the shell to dump core when listing jobs in the
`exit' builtin.
e. Fixed several bugs encountered when reading subscripts in associative
array assignments and expansions.
f. Fixed a bug that under some circumstances caused an associative array to
be converted to an indexed array.
g. Fixed a bug that caused syntax errors and SIGINT interrupts to not set
$? to a value > 128.
h. Fixed a bug that caused the shell to remove FIFOs associated with process
substitution inside shell functions.
i. Fixed a bug that caused terminal attributes to not be reset when the
`read' builtin timed out.
j. Fixed a bug in brace expansion that caused unwanted zero padding of the
expanded terms.
k. Fixed a bug that prevented the |& construct from working as intended when
used with a simple command with additional redirections.
l. Fixed a bug with the case statment ;& terminator that caused the shell to
dereference a NULL pointer.
m. Fixed a bug that caused assignment statements or redirections preceding
a simple command name to inhibit alias expansion.
n. Fixed the behavior of `set -u' to conform to the latest Posix interpretation:
every expansion of an unset variable except $@ and $* will cause the
shell to exit.
o. Fixed a bug that caused double-quoted expansions of $* inside word
expansions like ${x#$*} to not expand properly when $IFS is empty.
p. Fixed a bug that caused traps to set $LINENO to the wrong value when they
execute.
q. Fixed a bug that caused off-by-one errors when computing history lines in
the `fc' builtin.
r. Fixed a bug that caused some terminating signals to not exit the shell
quickly enough, forcing the kernel to send the signal (e.g., SIGSEGV)
multiple times.
s. Fixed a bug that caused the shell to attempt to add empty lines to the
history list when reading here documents.
t. Made some internal changes that dramatically speeds up sequential indexed
array access.
u. Fixed a bug that caused the shell to write past the end of a string when
completing a double-quoted string ending in a backslash.
v. Fixed a bug that caused the shell to replace too many characters when a
pattern match was null in a ${foo//bar} expansion.
w. Fixed bugs in the expansion of ** that caused duplicate directory names
and the contents of the current directory to be omitted.
x. Fixed a bug that caused $? to not be set correctly when referencing an
unset variable with set -u and set -e enabled.
y. Fixed a bug caused by executing an external program from the DEBUG trap
while a pipeline was running. The effect was to disturb the pipeline
state, occasionally causing it to hang.
z. Fixed a bug that caused the ** glob expansion to dump core if it
encountered an unsearchable directory.
aa. Fixed a bug that caused `command -v' and `command -V' to not honor the
path set by the -p option.
bb. Fixed a bug that caused brace expansion to take place too soon in some
compound array assignments.
cc. Fixed a bug that caused programmable completion functions' changes to
READLINE_POINT to not be reflected back to readline.
dd. Fixed a bug that caused the shell to dump core if a trap was executed
during a shell assignment statement.
ee. Fixed an off-by-one error when computing the number of positional
parameters for the ${@:0:n} expansion.
ff. Fixed a problem with setting COMP_CWORD for programmable completion
functions that could leave it set to -1.
gg. Fixed a bug that caused the ERR trap to be triggered in some cases where
`set -e' would not have caused the shell to exit.
hh. Fixed a bug that caused changes made by `compopt' to not persist past the
completion function in which compopt was executed.
ii. Fixed a bug that caused the list of hostname completions to not be cleared
when HOSTNAME was unset.
jj. Fixed a bug that caused variable expansion in here documents to look in
any temporary environment.
kk. Bash and readline can now convert file names between precomposed and
decomposed Unicode on Mac OS X ("keyboard" and file system forms,
respectively). This affects filename completion (using new
rl_filename_rewrite_hook), globbing, and readline redisplay.
ll. The ERR and EXIT traps now see a non-zero value for $? when a parser
error after set -e has been enabled causes the shell to exit.
mm. Fixed a bug that in brace expansion that caused zero-prefixed terms to
not contain the correct number of digits.
nn. Fixed a bug that caused the shell to free non-allocated memory when
unsetting an associative array which had had a value implicitly assigned
to index "0".
oo. Fixed a memory leak in the ${!prefix@} expansion.
pp. Fixed a bug that caused printf to not correctly report all write errors.
qq. Fixed a bug that caused single and double quotes to act as delimiters
when splitting a command line into words for programmable completion.
rr. Fixed a bug that caused ** globbing that caused **/path/* to match every
directory, not just those matching `path'.
ss. Fixed a bug that caused the shell to dump core when running `help' without
arguments if the terminal width was fewer than 7 characters.
2. Changes to Readline
a. The SIGWINCH signal handler now avoids calling the redisplay code if
one arrives while in the middle of redisplay.
b. Changes to the timeout code to make sure that timeout values greater
than one second are handled better.
c. Fixed a bug in the redisplay code that was triggered by a prompt
containing invisible characters exactly the width of the screen.
d. Fixed a bug in the redisplay code encountered when running in horizontal
scroll mode.
e. Fixed a bug that prevented menu completion from properly completing
filenames.
f. Fixed a redisplay bug caused by a multibyte character causing a line to
wrap.
g. Fixed a bug that caused key sequences of two characters to not be
recognized when a longer sequence identical in the first two characters
was bound.
h. Fixed a bug that caused history expansion to be attempted on $'...'
single-quoted strings.
i. Fixed a bug that caused incorrect redisplay when the prompt contained
multibyte characters in an `invisible' sequence bracketed by \[ and
\].
j. Fixed a bug that caused history expansion to short-circuit after
encountering a multibyte character.
3. New Features in Bash
a. Here-documents within $(...) command substitutions may once more be
delimited by the closing right paren, instead of requiring a newline.
b. Bash's file status checks (executable, readable, etc.) now take file
system ACLs into account on file systems that support them.
c. Bash now passes environment variables with names that are not valid
shell variable names through into the environment passed to child
processes.
d. The `execute-unix-command' readline function now attempts to clear and
reuse the current line rather than move to a new one after the command
executes.
e. `printf -v' can now assign values to array indices.
f. New `complete -E' and `compopt -E' options that work on the "empty"
completion: completion attempted on an empty command line.
g. New complete/compgen/compopt -D option to define a `default' completion:
a completion to be invoked on command for which no completion has been
defined. If this function returns 124, programmable completion is
attempted again, allowing a user to dynamically build a set of completions
as completion is attempted by having the default completion function
install individual completion functions each time it is invoked.
h. When displaying associative arrays, subscripts are now quoted.
i. Changes to dabbrev-expand to make it more `emacs-like': no space appended
after matches, completions are not sorted, and most recent history entries
are presented first.
j. The [[ and (( commands are now subject to the setting of `set -e' and the
ERR trap.
k. The source/. builtin now removes NUL bytes from the file before attempting
to parse commands.
l. There is a new configuration option (in config-top.h) that forces bash to
forward all history entries to syslog.
m. A new variable $BASHOPTS to export shell options settable using `shopt' to
child processes.
n. There is a new confgure option that forces the extglob option to be
enabled by default.
o. New variable $BASH_XTRACEFD; when set to an integer bash will write xtrace
output to that file descriptor.
p. If the optional left-hand-side of a redirection is of the form {var}, the
shell assigns the file descriptor used to $var or uses $var as the file
descriptor to move or close, depending on the redirection operator.
q. The < and > operators to the [[ conditional command now do string
comparison according to the current locale.
r. Programmable completion now uses the completion for `b' instead of `a'
when completion is attempted on a line like: a $(b c.
s. Force extglob on temporarily when parsing the pattern argument to
the == and != operators to the [[ command, for compatibility.
t. Changed the behavior of interrupting the wait builtin when a SIGCHLD is
received and a trap on SIGCHLD is set to be Posix-mode only.
u. The read builtin has a new `-N nchars' option, which reads exactly NCHARS
characters, ignoring delimiters like newline.
4. New Features in Readline
a. New bindable function: menu-complete-backward.
b. In the vi insertion keymap, C-n is now bound to menu-complete by default,
and C-p to menu-complete-backward.
c. When in vi command mode, repeatedly hitting ESC now does nothing, even
when ESC introduces a bound key sequence. This is closer to how
historical vi behaves.
d. New bindable function: skip-csi-sequence. Can be used as a default to
consume key sequences generated by keys like Home and End without having
to bind all keys.
e. New application-settable function: rl_filename_rewrite_hook. Can be used
to rewite or modify filenames read from the file system before they are
compared to the word to be completed.
f. New bindable variable: skip-completed-text, active when completing in the
middle of a word. If enabled, it means that characters in the completion
that match characters in the remainder of the word are "skipped" rather
than inserted into the line.
g. The pre-readline-6.0 version of menu completion is available as
"old-menu-complete" for users who do not like the readline-6.0 version.
h. New bindable variable: echo-control-characters. If enabled, and the
tty ECHOCTL bit is set, controls the echoing of characters corresponding
to keyboard-generated signals.
i. New bindable variable: enable-meta-key. Controls whether or not readline
sends the smm/rmm sequences if the terminal indicates it has a meta key
that enables eight-bit characters.
Changes:
1) This update fixes a compilation problem on AIX caused by not
wrapping WCOREDUMP(s) with #ifdef WCOREDUMP ... #endif.
2) General code cleanup and rechecking w/ splint(1) reduces
unnecessary code duplication and eases future maintenance.
3) This update adds the program name to osh diagnostics (e.g.,
"osh: syntax error") for the sake of user friendliness.

When using the ** globbing operator, bash will incorrectly add an extra
directory name when the preceding directory name ends with `*' or an empty
string when there is no preceding directory name.
If the prompt length exactly matches the screen width, and the prompt ends
with invisible characters, readline positions the cursor incorrectly.
When parsing case statements in command substitutions, the shell did not
note that a newline is a shell metacharacter and can legally be followed
by a reserved word (e.g., `esac').
When not in a locale supporting multibyte characters, readline will
occasionally not erase characters between the cursor position and the end
of the line when killing text backwards.
If a SIGWINCH arrives while bash is performing redisplay, multi-line prompts
are displayed incorrectly due to the display code being called recursively.
Using an external command as part of the DEBUG trap when job control is
enabled causes pipelines to misbehave. The problem has to do with process
groups assigned to the pipeline and terminal.
A missing include file results in an empty function definition and a no-op
when checking whether or not the window size has changed.
Adding a null line to a here-document (e.g., by hitting EOF) causes the
shell to dump core attempting to dereference the NULL pointer.
There are several problems with the handling of $LINENO in an ERR trap.
Deferring handling of signals which should cause the shell to terminate until
it is "safe" to run the handler functions does not work for some terminating
signals.
When the fc builtin is run in a command substitution from a shell with history
enabled, it does not correctly calculate the command on which to operate.
Though references to $@ when there are no positional parameters will now
cause the shell to exit if the `errexit' option has been enabled, constructs
such as ${@:-foo} should not cause an exit.
A case statement using the ;& pattern terminator followed immediately by
"esac" caused a core dump due to a null pointer dereference.
When using the new |& operator following a simple command with a redirection,
the redirection of stderr through the pipe was not performed under certain
circumstances.
mksh R38b fixes the following problems:
* [André Wösten] Add __NO_EXT_QNX to avoid picking up the wrong
waitfor() from <libutil.h> in (while porting to) QNX 6.4
* [tg] Plug memory corruption issue introduced in R38
* [tg] Amend dot.mkshrc with a base64 en-/decoder in shell
* [tg] Import a manpage fix via OpenBSD from Alan R. S. Bueno
mksh R38 comes with these changes and fixes applied:
* [tg] Improve regression test output debugging
* [tg] Fix <libutil.h> prerequisites on MidnightBSD in mirtoconf
* [tg] Mention that RedHat BZ#496791 cannot currently be fixed in the
manpage by discouraging use of apostrophes in comments in comsubs; add
appropriate (expected-fail) regression tests
* [tg] Sync with OpenBSD ksh (mostly a no-op)
* [James Butler] Add search-history-up and search-history-down keybindings
(tcsh-like) to the Emacs command line editing mode
* [tg] Bind new search-history-{up,down} to ANSI PgUp and PgDn keys
* [tg] Document ANSI default keybindings (↑↓←→ Home End Del PgUp PgDn)
in the mksh(1) manual page as well
* [tg] Optimise internal UTF-8 handling code for size and reusability
* [tg] Incompatible change: ${foo:1:2} and ${#foo} now
operate on characters, not on bytes. Characters are octets (set +U)
or (utf8-mode) MirOS OPTU-8 multibyte characters (set -U)
* [tg] Improve regression tests relating to ${foo:1:2} and
${#foo} and let wc=1#x and utf8-mode
* [tg] Use per-file copyright notices, move global text to manpage
* [tg] Expose new MKSH_MIDNIGHTBSD01ASH_COMPAT ifdef; change it to
only trigger if FPOSIX (or MKSH_BINSHREDUCED and /bin/sh)
* [tg] Remove already-dead “#if 0” style debugging code
* [tg] Change some code into a more portable fashion, optimise
* [tg] Allow [[ $foo ]] (ksh93 extension) mentioned by pgas
* [tg] Clean up mksh and the contributed arc4random.c for some
conversion, enum and other warnings for gcc-snapshot trunk r147610
* [tg] Ensure no function uses more than 768 bytes of stack either
* [tg, wbx] Add extension to make “!string” lines work like in GNU bash
Upstream changes between osh-20081213 and osh-20090527 follow:
osh bug fixes:
1) This release fixes an `echo' bug that causes `echo ""' to print an
unnecessary diagnostic.
2) It also fixes a `sigign' bug that can cause incorrect signal ignoring
behavior for subshells.
New osh features:
1) This release adds `cd' as a synonym for the `chdir' special command.
2) It also adds $m as a special parameter for the value of the MANPATH
environment variable.
