That is not pdksh.
tg@blau:/tmp/p/pdksh-5.2.14 $ PS1='x ' pdksh
x echo "a
> b"
a
b
x set -o emacs
x history
1 echo "a
2 b"
3 set -o emacs
Another thing, multi-line editing is not doable portably
without involving some beast like libtermcap or terminfo
because you cannot portably go “one line up”. Although a
multi-line command line input editing mode is on even my
own wishlist for years I believe we will not do that.
