| OSF1 rubbereendje.dechengst.nl V5.1 2650 alpha
with the vendor compiler:
| Compaq C V6.5-011 on HP Tru64 UNIX V5.1B (Rev. 2650)
| Compiler Driver V6.5-003 (sys) cc Driver
• the platform’s sig_t is incompatible too (simplify check)
• no compile warnings at all
• results in:
$ size mksh
| text data bss dec hex
| 327680 16384 17808 361872 58590
$ file mksh
| mksh: COFF format alpha dynamically linked, demand paged executable or object module not stripped - version 3.13-14
$ ldd mksh

| Main => mksh
| libc.so => /usr/shlib/libc.so
$ ls -l mksh

• minor testsuite issues:
FAIL ./check.t:regression-13
unexpected stderr - got too much output
wanted nothing
got:
Successful
cat: output error
⇒ probably harmless
• works like a charm!
• DEC C on OSF/1 (10x Jupp the IceWM coffee pot maintainer)
• other stuff which doesn’t nuke a.out on failure
XXX this must be tested on *ALL* supported platforms!
with GNU groff – add some special handling to the BSD mdoc macros for it so
that the manual pages look good in both utf8 and ps (PDF) mode; also fix in
mksh wrong display of ` (groff: ‘), ' (groff: ’), \' (groff: ´), \- (groff:
U+2212 −), the en dash (nroff doesn’t have it, use the em dash there ONLY),
and ~ and ^ (groff: placed atop and size-reduced, for use as diacritics, in
manual pages bad since these are control characters there)
→ PDF manpage now has ‘’ “” and good-looking hyphens and mini and ~ and ^
→ utf8 manpage now has ‘’ “”, good-looking hyphens, cut’n’pasteable mini
→ nroff manpage still has '' "" instead of ugly `' ``'' or even `´
→ Debian lintian won’t complain any longer
me, which points out that “gnroff -Tutf8” mangles the ‘-’ characters
(hyphen/minus) from the input into ‘‐’ characters (hyphen), which does
not make sense in many cases and prevent copy’n’paste → fix
no change in nrcon output
todo tomorrow:
• test case (compare with e.g. GNU bash)
• manpage
• version bump
sqchar is a bit ugly, but \/ must be preserved, as we don’t get wdencoded
strings later on in the process (eval.c CSUBST) and I didn’t want to have
an implementation like ${foo: 2: 3} this time
