Just one example, as that’s enough to prove breakage ;-) >So, I accept it might break further for other systems (and I'd be glad >if somebody can tweak it who has access to them), but right now this When porting mksh to a *lot* of systems I’ve learned to ditch all expectations and just use what works, sometimes grudgingly accepting kludges. Did you know GNU sed doesn’t like things like sed -n '/x\(y\)z/s//\1/p' in some versions, which coïncidentally are used on oldish unixoid OSes, for example? >makes it much less broken for all Linux distributions I can think of. Well yes. “All Linux distributions” is a GNU make monoculture. There’s a lot more makes out there, supported by even autotools for example. But the one thing I saw, using -C, is fixed easily by replacing + $(MAKE) -C chrtrans makeuctb$(BUILD_EXEEXT) with + cd chrtrans && exec $(MAKE) makeuctb$(BUILD_EXEEXT) (as well as the other occurrences). There may be others, I just wanted to point out that this patch MAY introduce GNUisms. bye, //mirabilos -- FWIW, I'm quite impressed with mksh interactively. I thought it was much *much* more bare bones. But it turns out it beats the living hell out of ksh93 in that respect. I'd even consider it for my daily use if I hadn't wasted half my life on my zsh setup. :-) -- Frank Terbeck in #!/bin/mksh _______________________________________________ Lynx-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lynx-dev
