2016-12-11I missed a bit of the indentation fix from Kartik Agaram.Todd C. Miller
2016-12-11When ERREXIT (set -e) is in effect, don't disable it after aTodd C. Miller
short-circuited `&&` or `||` chain in later iterations of `for` loops. It should be disabled after a short-circuited `&&` or `||` chain only in the *final* iteration of loops (as well as in conditionals, which was already working). From Kartik Agaram.
2016-12-11In execute() we assign xerrorok to a dummy value if it is NULLTodd C. Miller
so there is no need to check xerrorok for NULL after that. From Kartik Agaram.

2016-11-14Markup improvements:Ingo Schwarze
1. Mark up reserved words intended to appear at the beginning of command lines with .Ic. 2. Mark up syntax elements intended to appear in the middle of command lines with .Cm. This is not only more systematic, but also makes internal search commands like :tif<enter>, :tstop<enter>, and :t[[<enter> work in man(1).

2016-10-17No need to inspect LC_CTYPE:Ingo Schwarze
* It was only used in vi input mode. * No functional change in case of set -o vi-show8. * No functional change if LC_CTYPE is set to UTF-8. * More robust for the default of LC_CTYPE=C on a UTF-8 xterm. Behaviour changes for the combination LC_CTYPE=C with set +o vi-show8 on non-UTF-8 terminals, but that combination is useless and dangerous with or without this patch. If you want to edit individual raw non-ASCII non-UTF-8 bytes on the shell command line, always use set -o vi-show8. (Besides, i doubt that you actually want to do that; better use a real hex editor in the first place.) OK czarkoff@.

and not to a continuation byte for these commands: b B e E w W | Let {e,E}ndword return the position after the word because that is easier to handle in the caller. OK tb@ czarkoff@

2016-10-14Correct description of the "bind" builtin command.Ingo Schwarze

2016-10-11Partial UTF-8 line editing support for ksh(1) vi input mode;Ingo Schwarze
so far, it covers these commands: a h i l x / This is an isu8cont()-based hack similar in style to what i did in emacs input mode, but less elegant and slightly more intrusive because the vi mode code is much more ugly and less straightforward than the emacs mode code. This one required partial rewrites of a few helper functions, and comments were added while there. This is not perfect, but hopefully reduces people's cursing until a more rigorous solution can be devised (much) later. Some polishing may be useful in tree, in particular adding utf8cont() support to a few missing commands. Mostly written shortly after Christmas 2015. Reminded by and OK czarkoff@. Feedback, partial review and testing, no longer any objection by martijn@. Feedback and testing by tb@. Also read fine to nicm@.

2016-04-27Do not handle echo "`echo \"hi\"`" in POSIX mode differently than inChristian Weisgerber
traditional mode. This aligns ksh's behavior with bash and FreeBSD sh. The interpretation of the POSIX text is disputed, but it is unlikely that a change from the traditional behavior was intended. ok millert@

2016-03-21More ksh POSIX compliance fixes by Martijn Dekker:tb
This simple patch makes the 'command' builtin POSIX-compliant and consistent with other current shells. It fixes two things: a) 'command -v' does not find shell reserved words (a.k.a. keywords). For instance, 'command -v select' outputs nothing but should output 'select'. b) 'command -pv' always outputs the path of an external command, even if 'command -p' would execute a builtin. For instance, 'command -p kill' executes the 'kill' builtin, as expected, but 'command -pv kill' outputs '/bin/kill'. The '-v' option is supposed to reflect what would actually be executed, so 'command -pv kill' should output 'kill'. The -p option sets the PATH to a default system value before doing the search, but that has no bearing on the fact that builtins take precedence over external commands. The patch fixes both issues for 'command' without affecting the behaviour of the ksh-specific builtin 'whence', which is handled by the same C function. Regression test added to obsd-regress.t. Issues found and fixed by Martijn Dekker, ok millert@

2016-03-06Make set +o conform with POSIX.natano
It should be possible to use set +o to save the current shell options, then modify them at will and later restore them to the saved value. Therefore the output must not only contain the options which are currently set, but also the ones that are _not_ set, so a restore disables them if they are enabled. from Martijn Dekker (martijn (at) inlv (dot) org) ok sthen@, tb@
