The MirBSD Korn Shell,
|
|
mksh is a successor of pdksh but not affiliated with the
|
pdksh developers or contributors. mksh is not affiliated
|
with the AT&T Korn Shell, its past or present owners,
|
other than that both attempt to implement the Korn Shell
|
programming language.
|
|
mksh targets users who desire a compact, fast, reliable,
|
secure shell not cut off modern extensions; a shell with
|
Unicode support; an actively developed, current, and
|
portable product; one with developers that listen to
|
their users’ requests and implement them if they
|
actually make sense.
|
|
mksh aims to replace pdksh in all but very rare use cases
|
(such as support for checking the Unix mbox) and in all
|
operating environments
|
(thus including patches from pdksh on e.g. Debian).
