* initialise the integers PPID, OPTIND, RANDOM, SECONDS, and TMOUT to base-10
* bring back PGRP as base-10 integer to the process group via getpgrp(2)
* initialise USER_ID as base-10 integer to the effective user id as retrieved
from geteuid(2) = $(id -u)
* use $USER_ID in dot.mkshrc instead of spawning an id(1) process
-> dot.mkshrc,v 1.34 now requires mksh R34
* convert more int to bool where appropriate
* remove dead code - getpgrp(2) cannot fail
* sync manual page to reality
* bump to mksh R34(beta) - feature freeze
XXX check if our_pgrp in jobs.c is still really needed, the setpgid call
XXX probably just makes us our own pgrp leader, and we might have to use
XXX and update kshpgrp accordingly - need feedback/help here but I think
XXX this simplification should be possible if I grok the code correctly.
etc/profile:
* adjust to $USER_ID changes in mksh (speed-up here, too)
mksh.hts:
* sync changelog
change – this might affect other OSes too in time for R34
• one of the regression tests had an unexpected failure if running as root
• www: sync clog; log newer mksh built on newer OpenBSD works fine
act strange… 10x Adam “replaced” Hoka for helping to find this
00:51⎜<replaced_> it needs -A
00:52⎜<mirabilos> heh. locale?
00:52⎜<replaced_> -A Translates on a byte-by-byte basis. When this flag
00:52⎜<replaced_> is specified tr does not support extended
00:52⎜<replaced_> characters.
00:52⎜<replaced_> LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8
00:52⎜<mirabilos> hmmm
00:52⎜<mirabilos> but that is weird too
00:52⎜<mirabilos> I don't see why it shouldn't work
00:52⎜<replaced_> yeah, it should act the same
00:53⎜<mirabilos> try this please:
00:53⎜<mirabilos> without -A
00:53⎜<mirabilos> echo sys/param.h | env LC_ALL=C /bin/tr -c

00:53⎜<replaced_> this works of course
which oksh used for their ulimit change, as I’m not going
to hack on it for now… maybe editing the optstring as it
is parsed (in the first loop), but… naah, not now
‣ now, a “ksh93” just requires ‘function precmd { :; }; set -o emacs’
afterwards to get rid of the annoying error messages
‣ I could lose that with the following idiom:
- PS1='$(precmd)…
+ PS1='$(typeset -i e=$?; typeset -f precmd >&- && { (return $e); precmd })…
but it didn’t seem worthwhile to me
• remove explicit licence blah, normal ./copyright applies
• more int → bool
• more regression tests: check if the utf8-hack flag is really disabled
at non-interactive startup, enabled at interactive startup, if the
current locale is a UTF-8 one
• make the mksh-local multibyte handling functions globally accessible,
change their names, syntax and semantics a little (XXX more work needed)
• optimise
• utf_wctomb: src → dst, as we’re writing to that char array (pasto?)
• edit.c:x_e_getmbc(): if the second byte of a 2- or 3-byte multibyte
sequence is invalid utf-8, ungetc it (not possible for the 3rd byte yet)
• edit.c:x_zotc3(): easier (and faster) handling of UTF-8
• implement, document and test for base-1 numbers: they just get the
ASCII (8-bit) or Unicode (UTF-8) value of the octet(s) after the ‘1#’,
or do the same as print \x## or \u#### (depending on the utf8-hack flag),
plus support the PUA assignment of EF80‥EFFF for the MirBSD encoding “hack”
(print doesn’t, as it has \x## and \u#### to distinguish, but we cannot use
base-0 numbers which I had planned to use for raw octets first, as they are
used internally): http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.os.miros.general/7938
• as an application example, add a hexdumper to the regression tests ☺
(3 weeks, 5 days ago) by millert
Make ulimit able to get and set multiple limits in a single invocation
like bash and zsh do. Requested by espie@, OK deraadt@
matches mksh pre-R29 (the one introducing the bug), and typeset matches
the behaviour intended with the R29 changes (better AT&T ksh93 compati-
bility) but never reached
• adjust the man page description of “typeset -p”, as it’s different from
the “typeset” and “typeset -” actions
