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

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
* 'sigseen' in Build.sh goes away
* Signal name existence is checked in this order:
have our own¹ -> sys_signame[] -> _sys_signame[] -> build our own²
* Signal description existence is checked in this order:
sys_siglist[] -> _sys_siglist[] -> strsignal() -> NULL³
¹ Predefined list of items, for operating systems where we
cannot build² them, i.e. Plan 9 and Minix 3 (e.g. no $CPP -dD)
² The usual cpp(1) stuff
³ Changed later, see below
* Make $CPP test dependent on $NEED_MKSH_SIGNAME (others can
be added here, this is not absolute)
* Make signal name list generation² dependent on $NEED_MKSH_SIGNAME
* Fix check if the generation worked
* Guarantee that sigtraps[*].name and sigtraps[*].mess are valid
C strings; this makes the code shorter *and* removes a few pos-
sible nil pointer dereferences
* Embed autoconf'd usages of sys_sig* / strsignal / mksh_sigpairs
into inittraps()
* Check for each signal 0<=i<=NSIG that
name is not NULL or "" -> replace with ("%d", i)
mess is not NULL or "" -> replace with ("Signal %d", i)
name does not start (case-insensitive) with "SIG" -> name += 3
* In gettrap(), fix check if signal name starts, case-sensitive
or case-insensitive, depending on need, with "SIG" (bug from millert@)
Other changes:
* Build.sh: ac_test[n]() are documented
* Build.sh: ac_test[n]() can have negative prereqs as well now
* Build.sh: use <<-'EOF' consistently
* bump patchlevel to today
to strcasestr, it was used in a wrong way (reverse logic error in
checking its return value), turning to mis-detection of UTF-8 locale.
* sh.h, check.t: bump version
* copyright: bump year
twkm (from #ksh on freenode), that $RANDOM is always an unsigned
15-bit decimal integer.
(RANDOM << 15 | RANDOM) thusly yields 30 bit, which is still more
than 36^5, so we can use it on the baselife CD to speed things up
* edit.c: remove debug stuff again; next time better use shl.c functions ;)
* sh.h: add format attributes to a few shf functions
* histrap.c, var.c: fix format string mistakes
* main.c, sh.h: error_prefix and warningf take bool not int
* misc.c: make chvt() stuff use shf_* functions
* misc.c: rewrite the TIOCSTTY stuff to be better integrated in mksh,
since it originally was an external patch
* misc.c: chvt() no longer fails if e.g. chown fails due to e.g. R/O / fs
* var.c: fix typeset padding for right-justified zero-filled

17:39⎜<mirabile:#mksh> interesting
17:40⎜<mirabile:#mksh> why does integer-base-5 fail?
17:40⎜«hondza:#mksh» j=~3

17:40⎜<mirabile:#mksh> aah, nice catch
17:40⎜<mirabile:#mksh> that must be quoted of course. bug in the test.
17:41⎜<mirabile:#mksh> can you try with j='~3'
17:41⎜<mirabile:#mksh> I'll commit that in an instant then
17:42⎜«hondza:#mksh» yeah, quoting it worked
17:42⎜<mirabile:#mksh> thanks
17:42⎜«hondza:#mksh» :)
* integrate compat.h, version.h into sh.h (dependency trick didn't work anyway)
* mention #ksh in mksh(1) since the founder (twkm) said it's on topic too
(don't remove mention of #mksh despite it's usually empty because of control)
* mksh.1: rework prompt ($PS1) section, simplify example,
point to packaged dot.mkshrc example

because I asked for community feedback but...
have been read, for non-priviledgued shells only. If $ENV is
set, ~/.mkshrc is ignored (even if the file pointed to by $ENV
does not exist in the first place).
Feature requested by Jari Aalto for portable mksh because some
operating systems' vendors do not allow touching the profile.
Initial diff and manual page addition by Jari Aalto <jari.aalto@cante.net>
Code changes and manual page correctness by me.
according to SUSv3 and other modern shells (POSIX allows both).
Idea for the patch (add another lex state) from OpenBSD, but the
implementation differs slightly (and is better in quality).
Also add two testcases (/bin/sh passes both, old mksh only one),
and document the change in the manual page. Sync RCS IDs with OBSD.
but write a good chunk of that code myself (better structured, better error
handling, more gotos, less function calls, int -> bool)
passes all tests on mirbsd; this will become mksh R25 once tested on other
supported OSes

DragonFly BSD is now officially supported
Thanks to Thomas E. Spanjaard for providing a testing environment.
This might fix or break FreeBSD support, who knows...
- has an antiquated ed(1)
(I'm lucky it has one, some GNU/Linux don't...)
- cannot build mksh statically linked
* Solaris (SunOS 5.8)
- needs libdl when statically linked (NSSwitch problem)
- /bin/sh is not XPG.4 compatible, don't use test -e
sitory whose ChangeLog follows. mksh R21 is licenced under the MirOS li-
cence, shown in "sh.h", and a two-clause UCB-style licence by Marc Espie
as shown in "alloc.c".
This executable is a fair bit smaller and shorter than our /bin/ksh that
it is designed to eventually replace (as /bin/sh hardlink), with the old
/bin/ksh to completely vanish. It is still in beta testing though, and I
don't think it will compile on other operating systems.
mksh R21 is a completely new port, bringing together the OpenBSD-current
/bin/ksh, the MirOS-current /bin/ksh and the older mksh R20 (which still
was portable, ocvs-based).
