The MirBSD Korn Shell, | |
mksh is a successor of pdksh but not affiliated with the | |
pdksh developers or contributors. mksh is not affiliated | |
with the AT&T Korn Shell, its past or present owners, | |
other than that both attempt to implement the Korn Shell | |
programming language. | |
mksh targets users who desire a compact, fast, reliable, | |
secure shell not cut off modern extensions; a shell with | |
Unicode support; an actively developed, current, and | |
portable product; one with developers that listen to | |
their users’ requests and implement them if they | |
actually make sense. | |
mksh aims to replace pdksh in all but very rare use cases | |
(such as support for checking the Unix mbox) and in all | |
operating environments | |
(thus including patches from pdksh on e.g. Debian). | |
