just a "somewhat more POSIX" but also a "/bin/sh legacy kludge" mode
* consistently capitalise POSIX and SUSv3/SUSv4 (same as AT&T ksh) and
Bourne shell
MKSH_S_EDIT for small (Emacs) editing mode, MKSH_S_FEAT for all the dis-
abled language features), which can be set to 0 despite MKSH_SMALL being
defined to re-enable the Vi command line editing mode (which I wouldn't,
but fits into the general mastermind scheme)
some GNU bash extensions (suggested by cnuke@) and bind macros
* make the random cache more efficient (and the code potentially
smaller, although we have a new implementation of the oaat hash
function, alongside the old one, now) and pushb only if needed
(i.e. state has changed or user has set $RANDOM, but not onfork)
bash4 doesn’t have it at all, despite knowing associative arrays
zsh does it………… differently and weird
this is for indexed arrays, as mksh doesn’t have associative arrays
but it should help ☺
return information needed to do a real ktremove instead of the pseudo
ktdelete operation which merely unsets the DEFINED flag to mark it as
eligible for texpand garbage collection (even worse, !DEFINED entries
are still counted)
much better avalanche and no known funnels
• improve comments
• fix some types (uint32_t for hash, size_t for sizes)
• optimise ktsort()
no functional change, I think
starting with an ‘!’ exclamation mark at the beginning of a com-
mand (PS1 not PS2), shall have the same effect as the predefined
“r” alias, to be compatible with csh and GNU bash’s “!string” to
«Execute last used command starting with string» – documentation
and feature request provided by wbx@ (Waldemar Brodkorb)
fix the regression test’s results while here, which have been
broken since cid 10049D9BE5254CE65B8
• get rid of separate copyright file which was intended for De-
bian; track down commits in all files of oksh-mirbsd and mksh
to get correct copyright years per-file, as is BSD custom
was hard to type and hard to fix, galloc is also hard to fix, and some
things I learned will probably improve things more but make me use the
original form as base (especially for space savings)
* let sizeofN die though, remove even more casts
* optimise, polish
* regen Makefiles
* sprinkle a few /* CONSTCOND */ while here
encountered. However, when reading end of input, the source type is set
to SEOF while popping, whereas the recursion check code only checks for
an SALIAS type.
Fix: add a new SF_HASALIAS flag; change u.tblp from being valid if type
is SALIAS to being valid if SF_HASALIAS is set; set SF_HASALIAS for the
created SALIAS sources; set SF_HASALIAS and u.tblp when creating SALIAS
whose next is SEOF on the SEOF source as well.
Reported by Michael Hlavinka as Redhat Bug #474115
fool the compiler into not doing static bounds checking when we do
one-past-the-array-boundary pointer assignments for cases where the
only accesses are like (*--pointer); bump version
• others: fix 6 (!) cases of non-constant or side-effect arguments
to the str_save() or str_nsave() macros, and other abuse of them
• also fix some cosmetics and other un-nice code while here
and make it fit into mksh’s model (also gives us a couple of things
GNU bash doesn’t have
• add regression tests for all of these
Lukas “smultron” Upton from MidnightBSD spotted a script with /bin/sh
shebang invalidly using “&>” in some Apple backup toolkit, 10x
XXX why fds are limited to one digit?
‣ macro afreechk() is superfluous
• get rid of macro afreechv() by re-doing the “don’t leak that much” code
• some KNF (mostly, whitespace and 80c) while here
• 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 ☺
• split Xinit into XinitN and Xinit macro, the former
not initialising the “xp” argument of the latter,
and use this to get rid of two variables that are
only assigned but never referenced (gcc doesn’t see
this, but MIPSpro and IIRC SUNWcc do)
• re-indent while here
• bump patchlevel
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
