Résumé du paquet

MirBSD Korn Shell

Commandes et alias

  • mksh

historique

Historique du projet et usages

mksh, the MirBSD Korn Shell, is a Bourne/POSIX/Korn-style command interpreter and scripting language. The official site describes it as an actively developed free implementation of the Korn Shell programming language and successor to the Public Domain Korn Shell line.

Historique du projet

The mksh FAQ traces the lineage from the Public Domain Bourne Shell and pdksh, through OpenBSD cleanup work, to MirBSD development beginning in 2002. After 2004, development added portability, parser reorganization, bug fixes, and features influenced by ksh93, bash, zsh, BSD csh, and POSIX work.

The official mksh page lists R59c from October 31, 2020 as the current version and provides signed source distributions plus instructions for CVS HEAD.

Historique d'adoption

mksh became the system shell in several operating systems and Linux distributions. The FAQ says it is used as Android's system shell for startup, background, and user-invoked commands.

Its broad packaging footprint across Homebrew, Debian, Ubuntu, Alpine, Fedora, Nix, MacPorts, and SUSE reflects a mature portable shell rather than a platform-specific utility.

Modes d'utilisation

The mksh manual describes it as a command interpreter for both interactive and shell-script use, with a command language that is a superset of sh and POSIX shell and largely compatible with the original Korn shell.

Interactive users normally use `~/.mkshrc` or `$ENV`; login shells also process profile files. Packagers commonly install `dot.mkshrc` into `/etc/skel/.mkshrc` or `/etc/mkshrc` with a user-editable wrapper.

Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

mksh matters to package nerds because shells sit at the boundary between user environment, system boot scripts, and package maintainer scripts. It is a small but consequential runtime whose packaging choices affect `/bin/sh` compatibility, skeleton rc files, Android system behavior, and historical Korn shell compatibility.

It is also a case where the official project explicitly labels its GitHub mirror unofficial, so package metadata should prefer the MirBSD homepage, signed distfiles, manual, FAQ, and CVS/CVSweb sources.

Chronologie

  • 1980s: Public Domain Bourne Shell lineage begins, later becoming pdksh.
  • 1999: pdksh development ends.
  • 2002: Development of what became mksh starts as MirBSD's system shell.
  • 2003: OpenBSD cleanup of pdksh feeds into the lineage.
  • 2004: mksh sees independent parser, portability, and feature work.
  • 2020-10: Official page lists mksh R59c as current.

Related projects

  • mksh is related to pdksh, oksh, AT&T ksh/ksh93, POSIX sh, bash, zsh, lksh, Android system shell usage, MirBSD, Debian, and OpenWrt/FreeWRT packaging.
