Name : mksh
Product : Fedora 27
Version : 56c
Release : 1.fc27
URL :

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 R56c ========= * Remove redundant OS/2-specific code, clean up others
* Fix drive-qualified (absolute and relative) DOS-style path support in realpath
functionality, partially other places * Don���t substitute ${ENV:-~/.mkshrc}
result again * Improve OS/2 $PATH (et al.) handling, drive-relative paths *
Add MKSH_ENVDIR compile-time option for Jehanne and Plan 9 * Limit nesting
when parsing malformed code (Debian #878947) * Update wcwidth data with
bugfixed script (still Unicode 10; resulting values are identical to glibc git
master for extant chars) * Raise some time limits in the testsuite * Add
support for the Jehanne operating system * Set stdin to text mode before
executing child processes on OS/2 * Pass arguments via a resonse file if
executing a child fails * Early locale tracking as a compile-time option *
Fix regressions introduced with new fast character classes
