Name : mksh
Product : Fedora 22
Version : 52
Release : 1.fc22
URL : https://www.mirbsd.org/mksh.htm
Summary : MirBSD enhanced version of the Korn Shell
Description :
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. It includes bug fixes and feature improvements in order to produce a
modern, robust shell good for interactive and especially script use, being a
bourne shell replacement, pdksh successor and an alternative to the C shell.

Update Information:
mksh R52 ======== R52 is a strongly recommended bugfix release: * Move moving
external link from mksh(1) to the #ksh channel homepage linked therein * Make
setenv “set -u”-safe and fix when invoked with no args * Make “typeset -f”
output reentrant if name is a reserved word * Zero-pad seconds in “time” output
to align columns * Check signals and errorlevels from OS to be within bounds *
Quote and document ‘;’ as PATH separator in some places * Simplify code to call
afree() even if arg is NULL * Fix tree-printing and reentrancy of multiple here
documents * Work around LP#1030581 by permitting exactly one space after *
Code quality work, cleanups * New code for here documents/strings with several
bugfixes * Stop using issetugid(2) for ±p checks, wrong tool for the job *
Reintroduce some -o posix changes lost in 2005, plus fixes * Make “source” into
a built-in command * Drop “stop” alias, lksh(1) functionality to auto-unalias
* Fix \u0000 ignored in $'…' and print * Improve portability of Build.sh *
Improve portability of testsuite * Fix tilde expansion for some substitutions
* Improve reparsing of ((…) |…) as ( (…) |…) * Fix test(1) not returning
evaluation errors * Fix ${*:+x} constructs (carstenh) * Make (( … )) into a
compound command (ormaaj) * Repair a few parameter substitution expansion
mistakes
