oksh VS openbsd-src

David Korn's ksh93 was passed on to a new set of developers, who attempted to release a new version; AT&T rolled back these changes due to performance problems which raised questions of support status. It does appear that ksh93 development has resumed, and a new version was released late last year.

The independent pdksh spawned mksh, which is the default shell used in Android (as it has a BSD license); mksh appears to be very much active.

OpenBSD also forked oksh from pdksh. This is certainly well-maintained.

I don't know if this is helpful or just annoying unsolicited "advice"

Anyway, for those of us who like openbsd ksh(all two of us) which is derived from pdksh. there is the project oksh.

I like oksh: https://github.com/ibara/oksh

...and that ksh descended from pdksh, and is distributed as the oksh portable project here:

The MirBSD Korn Shell also descended from pdksh, and it can be found here:

http://www.mirbsd.org/mksh.htm

I don't know about the feature differences and code quality between these two; they both implement most of ksh88, and a small amount of ksh93.

I prefer mksh when I need something more than a POSIX shell.

Brian Callahan publishes a portable version here: https://github.com/ibara/oksh

Porting from OpenBSD, look for the portable versions and their compat layer. https://github.com/ibara/oksh/blob/master/portable.h

The keyboard and touchpad don't work on the MacBook 12 since they need new SPI drivers for the controller and keyboard/touchpad. I wrote some but never committed them and apparently they're similar on the new M1 MacBooks which are just HID over SPI so I didn't need to write this big complicated driver anyway, but I digress...

I maintain a jcs branch with some local changes that I haven't upstreamed yet.
