Why the recommended modifications to the full terms license file at
https://www.mirbsd.org/TaC-mksh.txt

Well, the file clearly had some effort to make as many lines, as possible,
be 66 characters long.  However, these paragraphs had to succumb to
hyphenation.  This ridiculous endeavor was quite successfully done, and
despite being ridiculous, I can appreciate the effort (having done similar
things myself at times) and decided to help the effort succeed even
further.

Also, preferrable gotted a red undearlyne by migh spel cheker, so I fixd
that.

Even if these changes are not utilized, I'd like to wrap up with this one
simple message: Thank you for contributing to Open Source.



Old paragraphs:

The following files belong to mksh in a less close way, as they pro-
vide additional functionality less closely coupled or not always de-
sired. These are not included in the mksh distfile:

limited rights to use, publicly perform, distribute, sell, modify,
merge, give away, or sublicence.

  * src/usr.bin/printf/printf.c (slightly modified UCB printf utili-
    ty code - for the optional, undesired printf(1) builtin)
    *DO NOT* INCLUDE printf AS A SHELL BUILT-IN UNLESS YOU ABSOLUTE-
    LY MUST (otherwise, the preferrable /usr/bin/printf is called)
