mksh is the MirBSD enhanced version of the Public Domain Korn shell (pdksh),
|
|
a Bourne-compatible shell which is largely similar to the original AT&T
|
|
Korn shell; mksh is the only pdksh derivate currently being actively developed.
|
|
It includes bug fixes and feature improvements, in order to produce a modern,
|
|
robust shell good for interactive and especially script use.
|
|
|
|
The code has been thoroughly cleaned up and simplified, bugs fixed, standards
|
|
compliance added, and several enhancements (for extended compatibility to other
|
|
modern shells, as well as a couple of its own) have been placed. mksh has UTF-8
|
|
support (e.g. in the emacs editing mode).
