$OpenBSD: CONTRIBUTORS,v 1.9 1999/07/14 13:37:23 millert Exp $
This is a partial history of this shell gleened from old change logs and
readmes (most of which are still in the misc directory) and the source
code. Hopefully it is correct and no contributors have been left out
(file a bug report if you spot a problem :-)).
Release history:
* Eric Gisin (egisin@math.uwaterloo.ca), created pdksh, using
Charles Forsyth's public domain V7 shell as a base; also used parts
of the BRL shell (written by Doug A Gwyn, Doug Kingston, Ron Natalie,
Arnold Robbins, Lou Salkind, and others?, circa '87; the parts used in
pdksh included getopts, test builtin, ulimit, tty setting/getting, emacs
editing, and job control; the test builtin was based on code by Erik
Baalbergen).
'87..'89 ?
Released versions: .. 3.2
* John R MacMillan (@yonge.csri.toronto.edu:chance!john@sq.sq.com)
takes over as maintainer

$OpenBSD: INSTALL,v 1.1.1.1 1996/08/14 06:19:10 downsj Exp $
[This file is the generic GNU autoconf/configure installation description,
see the README for pdksh specific configuration/installation information]
This is a generic INSTALL file for utilities distributions.
If this package does not come with, e.g., installable documentation or
data files, please ignore the references to them below.
The `configure' shell script attempts to guess correct values for
various system-dependent variables used during compilation, and
creates the Makefile(s) (one in each subdirectory of the source
directory). In some packages it creates a C header file containing
system-dependent definitions. It also creates a file `config.status'
that you can run in the future to recreate the current configuration.
To compile this package:
1. Configure the package for your system.
Normally, you just `cd' to the directory containing the package's
source code and type `./configure'. If you're using `csh' on an old
version of System V, you might need to type `sh configure' instead to
prevent `csh' from trying to execute `configure' itself.
Running `configure' takes awhile. While it is running, it
prints some messages that tell what it is doing. If you don't want to
see any messages, run `configure' with its standard output redirected
to `/dev/null'; for example, `./configure >/dev/null'.
To compile the package in a different directory from the one
containing the source code, you must use a version of `make' that
supports the `VPATH' variable, such as GNU `make'. `cd' to the
directory where you want the object files and executables to go and run
the `configure' script. `configure' automatically checks for the
source code in the directory that `configure' is in and in `..'. If
for some reason `configure' is not in the source code directory that
you are configuring, then it will report that it can't find the source
code. In that case, run `configure' with the option `--srcdir=DIR',
where DIR is the directory that contains the source code.
By default, `make install' will install the package's files in
`/usr/local/bin', `/usr/local/man', etc. You can specify an
installation prefix other than `/usr/local' by giving `configure' the
option `--prefix=PATH'. Alternately, you can do so by consistently
giving a value for the `prefix' variable when you run `make', e.g.,
make prefix=/usr/gnu
make prefix=/usr/gnu install
You can specify separate installation prefixes for
architecture-specific files and architecture-independent files. If you
give `configure' the option `--exec-prefix=PATH' or set the `make'
variable `exec_prefix' to PATH, the package will use PATH as the prefix
for installing programs and libraries. Data files and documentation
will still use the regular prefix. Normally, all files are installed
using the same prefix.
Some packages pay attention to `--with-PACKAGE' options to
`configure', where PACKAGE is something like `gnu-as' or `x' (for the
X Window System). They may also pay attention to `--enable-FEATURE'
options, where FEATURE indicates an optional part of the package. The
README should mention any `--with-' and `--enable-' options that the
package recognizes.
`configure' also recognizes the following options:
`--help'
Print a summary of the options to `configure', and exit.
`--quiet'
`--silent'
Do not print messages saying which checks are being made.
`--verbose'
Print the results of the checks.
`--version'
Print the version of Autoconf used to generate the `configure'
script, and exit.
`--x-includes=DIR'
X include files are in DIR.
`--x-libraries=DIR'
X library files are in DIR.
`configure' also accepts and ignores some other options.
On systems that require unusual options for compilation or linking
that the package's `configure' script does not know about, you can give
`configure' initial values for variables by setting them in the
environment. In Bourne-compatible shells, you can do that on the
command line like this:
CC='gcc -traditional' LIBS=-lposix ./configure
On systems that have the `env' program, you can do it like this:
env CC='gcc -traditional' LIBS=-lposix ./configure
Here are the `make' variables that you might want to override with
environment variables when running `configure'.
For these variables, any value given in the environment overrides the
value that `configure' would choose:
- Variable: CC
C compiler program. The default is `cc'.
- Variable: INSTALL
Program to use to install files. The default is `install' if you
have it, `cp' otherwise.
For these variables, any value given in the environment is added to
the value that `configure' chooses:
- Variable: DEFS
Configuration options, in the form `-Dfoo -Dbar...'. Do not use
this variable in packages that create a configuration header file.
- Variable: LIBS
Libraries to link with, in the form `-lfoo -lbar...'.
If you need to do unusual things to compile the package, we encourage
you to figure out how `configure' could check whether to do them, and
mail diffs or instructions to the address given in the README so we
can include them in the next release.
2. Type `make' to compile the package. If you want, you can override
the `make' variables CFLAGS and LDFLAGS like this:
make CFLAGS=-O2 LDFLAGS=-s
3. If the package comes with self-tests and you want to run them,
type `make check'. If you're not sure whether there are any, try it;
if `make' responds with something like
make: *** No way to make target `check'. Stop.
then the package does not come with self-tests.
4. Type `make install' to install programs, data files, and
documentation.
5. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the
source directory by typing `make clean'. To also remove the
Makefile(s), the header file containing system-dependent definitions
(if the package uses one), and `config.status' (all the files that
`configure' created), type `make distclean'.
The file `configure.in' is used to create `configure' by a program
called `autoconf'. You only need it if you want to regenerate
`configure' using a newer version of `autoconf'.

* history: "fc <number>" now edits <number>, not <number> to most recent.
* cd: two argument form works again.
* special commands taking assignments (alias,set,etc.): field splitting,
file globbing, etc. suppressed only for args that look like assignments.
* command: -V now finds reserved words.
* added support for Korn's /dev/fd tests
* new compile time option: DEFAULT_ENV - if defined, it names a file to
include if $ENV is not set.
* test -o option: if option starts with a !, the test is negated. The test
always fails if the option doesn't exist (so [ -o foo -o -o !foo ] is true
iff option foo exists).
* new option: set -o nohup (currently on by default) - if set, running jobs
are not kill -HUP'd when a login shell exits; if clear, they are. In
future, this will be clear by default (to act like at&t ksh) - if you don't
(won't) like this, add "[ -o !nohup ] && set -o nohup" to your .profile.
Version 5.2.2
* bug fixes
* included c_test.h in distribution (opps).
Version 5.2.1
* bug fixes
* emacs: buffer no longer overflowed when completing file names/commands.
* emacs: <ESC><tty-erase-char> now bound to delete-back-word (was ...-char).
* emacs: ignores a space char after ^V (version), as in at&t ksh.
* emacs: ^O bound to newline-and-next, ^X^Y bound to list-file.
* emacs: emacs words now include underscore.
* vi: set -o markdirs, directories and ^[= now get along.
* cd: -P no longer leaves .. and . in PWD.
* cd: if CDPATH set and can't cd, error doesn't contain any of CDPATH.
* cd: sets PWD properly, on machines without getwd().
* configuration: unistd.h test fixed (include sys/types before dirent.h).
* configuration: detects memmove/bcopy's that don't handle overlaps.
* [[ ... ]] does lazy evaluation (eg, [[ ! -f foo || $(<foo) = bar ]] does
not evaluate $(<foo) if foo doesn't exist).
Version 5.2.0
* bug fixes
* vi: completion now allows globbing characters.
* vi: can deal with very long prompts.
* vi: . (redo) works after j, k, return.
* vi: [dyc]% causing backwards motion now gets correct start/end position.
* vi: complete_word (<ESC>\) no longer rings bell on ambiguous matches.
* vi: globbing doesn't append * if last component of file has globbing chars.
* emacs: most commands now take arguments, arguments can be multi digit.

* original process group restored when an exec is done.
* the exit value of set is that of the last $(...) on the command line.
* ditto for a command with no command (eg, x=`false`).

and are added as they are processed (so A=1 B=$A works).
* variable assignments infront of function calls are exported to programs
inside the function.
* aliases with trailing space are only honoured in command contexts
if in posix mode.
* make depend target added; install target warns if ksh not in /etc/shells.

Version 5.0.6
* most reported bugs/problems fixed (all but two).
* temporary files now created in $TMPDIR (if it is a sane path).
Version 5.0.5
* function parsing POSIXized (function bodies can be any compound command,
redirections after functions effect function invocation, not the
instantiation, the () in a function definition now parsed as two tokens).
* exit bultin now does stopped jobs check.
* set -p/-o priviliged supported.
* test builtin now believed to be completely posix.
* a default path is now used when PATH is not set (defined in options.h).

(all as in at&t ksh); unalias -a added (POSIX).
* test builtin POSIX complient
* TMOUT parameter supported (at&t ksh: timeout interactive shells)
Version 5.0.2
* trap/error handling changed to eliminate longjmp()s from signal handlers;
trap ERR added.
* ksh conditional expressions ([[ .. ]]) supported.
* arithmetic expressions (let, $((..)), etc.) now understand full C
integer expressions (except ++/-- and sizeof()).
* typeset -L -R -Z -u -l added (as in at&t ksh)
* at&t/posix $(( .. )) arithmetic expansions supported.
Version 5.0.1
* set -e no longer effects commands executed as part of if/while/until/&&/||/!
condition.
* posix ! keyword now recognized.
* posix getopts; if not in posix mode, getopts will accept options starting
with + (at&t kshism)

Version 4.9+mun.5
* all known bugs related to job control fixed:
* fg,bg,jobs,wait,kill commands fully POSIX complient
* signals are no longer reported for foreground jobs killed by SIGINT and
SIGPIPE
* pipeline process groups now created more reliablely (was a problem
if first process exited before second process exec'd).
* "(: ; cat /etc/termcap) | sleep" nolonger hangs
* save/restore tty mode if command succeeds/fails, respectively. Edit
mode (emacs,vi) no longer use old tty mode information
* test command: added -h
* alternations option renamed to braceexpand (eg, use set -o braceexpand).
Old usage (set -o alternations) still accepted (will disappear in next
version).
* trap/kill now accept upper and lower case signal names.
Version 4.9+mun.3
* here documents in functions now work properly
* read command: added -s option, use REPLY if no variable specified
* don't accept "while command; done" as a valid command
* fg,bg,jobs,wait,kill commands mostly POSIX complient.
* unset command: added POSIX -v option
* set command: added -A option
* handle ${array[@]} and ${array[*]}
* compiles with old bsd 4.2 compiler (pcc)
* new versions of etc/profile and etc/ksh.profile
Version 4.9+mun.2 (versus 4.9)
* directory/file structure has been re-arranged:
* moved files from sh directory up a level, deleted sh directory
* created misc directory, old ChangeLog,README,.. files moved to misc
* now uses GNU autoconf for compilation.
* no longer uses stdio FILE *'s for I/O redirection (most stdio
usage has been removed). Solves many porting problems caused by
dup'd file descriptors, forked processes and exiting.
* removed lint from code (compiles with very few warning with gcc -O -Wall
-Wno-comment)
* has array support (needs work but is pretty functional).
* ulimit command now more functional on more machines. Compatible with at&t ksh.
* command line and set option parsing cleaned up, POSIXized.
* POSIX IFS handling.
* many many small bug fixes (see ChangeLog)
