  • oksh

    Portable OpenBSD ksh, based on the Public Domain Korn Shell (pdksh).

    Project mention: Pnut: A C to POSIX Shell Compiler you can Trust | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-07-23

    All of Android is still based on a pdksh-derivative known as mksh, which is an enormous install base.

    OpenBSD switched their default shell to their own pdksh-derivative known as oksh.

    There was an effort to (re)start ksh93 development, but AT&T halted this effort. The bugfixes from the failed effort have moved back into Korn's last release.

  • dgsh

    Shell supporting pipelines to and from multiple processes

    Project mention: Pipexec – Handling pipe of commands like a single command | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-09

    Hm interesting, also see dgsh, the directed graph shell

    dgsh uses Unix domain sockets, not pipes. I don't remember exactly why, but it's in the paper, perhaps to avoid deadlocks compared to pipes.

    I'd also be interested in some more examples with pipexec or dgsh!
