-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2008-2901 2008-04-08 23:37:53 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : mksh Product : Fedora 8 Version : 33c Release : 1.fc8 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. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog:
