Name        : mksh
Product     : Fedora 7
Version     : 33c
Release     : 1.fc7
URL         : http://www.mirbsd.de/mksh/
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:

The manual page looks much better in GNU groff (-Tascii is now equivalent to
AT&T nroff, -Tutf8 is able to copy and paste, and -Tps is typographically
nicer). Scripts can now be daemonised. The export/readonly/typeset command
output has been corrected for the  case of displaying a list of variables
(without and with -p). Some minor code cleanup has been done as well.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.  Use 
su -c 'yum update mksh' at the command line.
