delivered to the process
• regression test by Clint Pachl, verified against Debian ksh93 by me
• place to fix it in the code discovered by Otto Moerbeek
namely Dr. Robert “Pfeffer” Arnold (in this case, in FreeWRT), make
a half-completed attempt at implementing ${foo:2:3} substring evals
(of course, negatives can't work right now and that the numbers are
in face expressions is something I only read later too – this is to
be revisited later, but it's already late)
don't depend on this behaviour yet though
if someone wants to add more regression tests, feel free to…
is a compromise anyway; these lunox people will have to live with that, too
many existing korn shell alike scripts depend on it even if not on the full
korn shell syntax availability (note: this doesn't mean using these in some
script with #!/bin/sh is ok)
mksh was configured to have utf-8 mode “always on” (because it's
really only always on for interactive shells); setting it to really
always on would break the other half of this regression test, so
do the optimisation only if MKSH_SMALL
do not start with a "#!shell" sequence” part of mksh(1) true again; this
was probably lost in mksh R21 or so when I decided/saw that our kernel
always parses shebang lines (code written myself, not taken from pdksh
again or MirBSD kernel, but verified against both)
• bom+shebang execution now works, no need setting EXECSHELL in the test
• bump version
starting with an UTF-8 BOM before the shebang can be executed correctly;
this would succeed if either mksh parses the shebang line instead of re-
lying on $EXECSHELL or the kernel supports it
bsiegert@ ok's my attempts to fix this
given to execute, standard input (interactive or not), via -c command line
argument, or after “eval”, but not for $(…) comsubs, at the beginning of a
subsequent line, or within a line, etc.); regression test for it
idea during my “week off” (despite the pain), bsiegert@ thinks it's good –
and utf-8 capable tools ought to be able to do this anyway
and have it return an API-correct const char *
• enhance and stylify comments
• a little KNF and simplifications
• #ifdef DEBUG: replace strchr and strstr with ucstrchr and ucstrstr
that take and return a non-const char *, and fix the violations
• new cstrchr, cstrstr (take and give const char *)
• new vstrchr, vstrstr (take const or not, give boolean value)
• new afreechk(x) = afreechv(x,x) = if (x1) afree(x2, ATEMP)
• new ksh_isdash(str) = (str != NULL) && !strcmp(str, "-")
• replace the only use of strrchr with inlined code to shrink
• minor man page fixes
• Minix 3 signames are autogenerated with gcc
• rename strlfun.c to strlcpy.c since we don't do strlcat(3) anyway,
only strlcpy(3), and shorten it
• dot.mkshrc: move MKSH=… down to the export line
to not disturb the PS1 visual impression ☺
• dot.mkshrc: Lstripcom(): optimise
• bump version
¹) side effect from creating API-correct cstrchr, cstrstr, etc.
uses goto so it must be better ☻
tested on mirbsd-current via both Makefile and Build.sh
sequence is eaten before the command is called; cought by <TGEN>
(Thomas E. Spanjaard) via IRC
fix is to tabcomplete a newline to singlequote+newline+singlequote
* bump version
side (I don't have capacities to scan 71711 files in MirOS for a
standards-compliance whack)
* copyright: mention CVS changelogs as place of contributors' name
and credit information, too
* check.t, sh.h: bump
