ksh: remove broken special handling of test -t
Drop the vestiges of the pre-POSIX support of `test -t' defaulting to fd 1. It doesn't work and it always succeed since "-t" is treated as a string by default when no argument (fd) is specified.

Add support for set -o pipefail
With the pipefail option set, the exit status of a pipeline is 0 if all commands succeed, or the return status of the rightmost command that fails. This can help stronger error checking, but is not a silver bullet. For example, commands will exhibit a non-zero exit status if they're killed by a SIGPIPE when writing to a pipe. Yet pipefail was considered useful enough to be included in the next POSIX standard.
This implementation remembers the value of the pipefail option when a pipeline is started, as described as option 1) in

More ksh POSIX compliance fixes by Martijn Dekker:
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.

Make set +o conform with POSIX.
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.

When the first argument or arguments of a macro are opening delimiters (parentheses and/or square brackets), both modern groff and mandoc first output those leading delimiters as plain text, then start the macro scope after these opening delimiters. This is similar to printing trailing punctuation and trailing closing delimiters on a macro line outside and after the macro scope. For example, ".Sq ( text )" is "(`text')", not "`(text)'". Thus, we now need to quote leading opening delimiters when we want them inside the macro scope. These are the cases in src/bin.

Add support for set -o pipefail
With the pipefail option set, the exit status of a pipeline is 0 if all commands succeed, or the return status of the rightmost command that fails. This can help stronger error checking, but is not a silver bullet. For example, commands will exhibit a non-zero exit status if they're killed by a SIGPIPE when writing to a pipe. Yet pipefail was considered useful enough to be included in the next POSIX standard.
This implementation remembers the value of the pipefail option when a pipeline is started, as described as option 1) in

More ksh POSIX compliance fixes by Martijn Dekker:
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.

Make set +o conform with POSIX.
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.

When the first argument or arguments of a macro are opening delimiters (parentheses and/or square brackets), both modern groff and mandoc first output those leading delimiters as plain text, then start the macro scope after these opening delimiters. This is similar to printing trailing punctuation and trailing closing delimiters on a macro line outside and after the macro scope. For example, ".Sq ( text )" is "(`text')", not "`(text)'". Thus, we now need to quote leading opening delimiters when we want them inside the macro scope. These are the cases in src/bin.

Add support for set -o pipefail
With the pipefail option set, the exit status of a pipeline is 0 if all commands succeed, or the return status of the rightmost command that fails. This can help stronger error checking, but is not a silver bullet. For example, commands will exhibit a non-zero exit status if they're killed by a SIGPIPE when writing to a pipe. Yet pipefail was considered useful enough to be included in the next POSIX standard.
This implementation remembers the value of the pipefail option when a pipeline is started, as described as option 1) in

Do not handle echo "`echo \"hi\"`" in POSIX mode differently than in 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.

More ksh POSIX compliance fixes by Martijn Dekker:
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.

Make set +o conform with POSIX.
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.

When the first argument or arguments of a macro are opening delimiters (parentheses and/or square brackets), both modern groff and mandoc first output those leading delimiters as plain text, then start the macro scope after these opening delimiters. This is similar to printing trailing punctuation and trailing closing delimiters on a macro line outside and after the macro scope. For example, ".Sq ( text )" is "(`text')", not "`(text)'". Thus, we now need to quote leading opening delimiters when we want them inside the macro scope. These are the cases in src/bin.

pass "xerrok" status across the execution call stack to more closely match what both POSIX and ksh.1 already describe in regards to set -e/errexit's behavior in determining when to exit from nonzero return values.
specifically, the truth values tested as operands to `&&' and `||', as well as the resulting compound expression itself, along with the truth value resulting from a negated command (i.e. a pipeline prefixed `!'), should not make the shell exit when -e is in effect.

Introduce a new shell option, emacs-usemeta, that allows to toggle this behavior. The default is the traditional behavior; to enter 8-bit characters use "set +o emacs-usemeta".

Add support for set -o pipefail
With the pipefail option set, the exit status of a pipeline is 0 if all commands succeed, or the return status of the rightmost command that fails. This can help stronger error checking, but is not a silver bullet. For example, commands will exhibit a non-zero exit status if they're killed by a SIGPIPE when writing to a pipe. Yet pipefail was considered useful enough to be included in the next POSIX standard.
This implementation remembers the value of the pipefail option when a pipeline is started, as described as option 1) in

Allow simple custom completions by creating an array named "complete_commandname_argnum", for example:
set -A complete_kill_1 -- -9 -HUP -INFO -KILL -TERM
To set completions for the first argument to kill(1). If no complete_* arrays are present, the normal filename completion is offered.

Do not handle echo "`echo \"hi\"`" in POSIX mode differently than in 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.

More ksh POSIX compliance fixes by Martijn Dekker:
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.

Make set +o conform with POSIX.
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.

When the first argument or arguments of a macro are opening delimiters (parentheses and/or square brackets), both modern groff and mandoc first output those leading delimiters as plain text, then start the macro scope after these opening delimiters. This is similar to printing trailing punctuation and trailing closing delimiters on a macro line outside and after the macro scope. For example, ".Sq ( text )" is "(`text')", not "`(text)'". Thus, we now need to quote leading opening delimiters when we want them inside the macro scope. These are the cases in src/bin.

pass "xerrok" status across the execution call stack to more closely match what both POSIX and ksh.1 already describe in regards to set -e/errexit's behavior in determining when to exit from nonzero return values.
specifically, the truth values tested as operands to `&&' and `||', as well as the resulting compound expression itself, along with the truth value resulting from a negated command (i.e. a pipeline prefixed `!'), should not make the shell exit when -e is in effect.

In emacs editing mode, ksh by default interprets a set 8th bit as meta prefix, i.e. all characters with the top bit set (>= 0x80) are taken as commands and cannot be entered literally.
Introduce a new shell option, emacs-usemeta, that allows to toggle this behavior. The default is the traditional behavior; to enter 8-bit characters use "set +o emacs-usemeta".

Add support for set -o pipefail
With the pipefail option set, the exit status of a pipeline is 0 if all commands succeed, or the return status of the rightmost command that fails. This can help stronger error checking, but is not a silver bullet. For example, commands will exhibit a non-zero exit status if they're killed by a SIGPIPE when writing to a pipe. Yet pipefail was considered useful enough to be included in the next POSIX standard.
This implementation remembers the value of the pipefail option when a pipeline is started, as described as option 1) in

More ksh POSIX compliance fixes by Martijn Dekker:
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.

Make set +o conform with POSIX.
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.

make -column lists pretty again;
specifically, rewrite them to permit some markup in the column headers, and use "Ta" instead of literal tabs; mandoc does not currently match groff 100%, but a mandoc fix may be some time off, and we've gone enough releases with poorly formatting column lists.
in some cases i have rewritten the lists as -tag, where -column made little sense.

When the first argument or arguments of a macro are opening delimiters (parentheses and/or square brackets), both modern groff and mandoc first output those leading delimiters as plain text, then start the macro scope after these opening delimiters. This is similar to printing trailing punctuation and trailing closing delimiters on a macro line outside and after the macro scope. For example, ".Sq ( text )" is "(`text')", not "`(text)'". Thus, we now need to quote leading opening delimiters when we want them inside the macro scope. These are the cases in src/bin.

pass "xerrok" status across the execution call stack to more closely match what both POSIX and ksh.1 already describe in regards to set -e/errexit's behavior in determining when to exit from nonzero return values.
specifically, the truth values tested as operands to `&&' and `||', as well as the resulting compound expression itself, along with the truth value resulting from a negated command (i.e. a pipeline prefixed `!'), should not make the shell exit when -e is in effect.

Add support for set -o pipefail
With the pipefail option set, the exit status of a pipeline is 0 if all commands succeed, or the return status of the rightmost command that fails. This can help stronger error checking, but is not a silver bullet. For example, commands will exhibit a non-zero exit status if they're killed by a SIGPIPE when writing to a pipe. Yet pipefail was considered useful enough to be included in the next POSIX standard.
This implementation remembers the value of the pipefail option when a pipeline is started, as described as option 1) in

More ksh POSIX compliance fixes by Martijn Dekker:
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.

Make set +o conform with POSIX.
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.

make -column lists pretty again;
specifically, rewrite them to permit some markup in the column headers, and use "Ta" instead of literal tabs; mandoc does not currently match groff 100%, but a mandoc fix may be some time off, and we've gone enough releases with poorly formatting column lists.
in some cases i have rewritten the lists as -tag, where -column made little sense.

When the first argument or arguments of a macro are opening delimiters (parentheses and/or square brackets), both modern groff and mandoc first output those leading delimiters as plain text, then start the macro scope after these opening delimiters. This is similar to printing trailing punctuation and trailing closing delimiters on a macro line outside and after the macro scope. For example, ".Sq ( text )" is "(`text')", not "`(text)'". Thus, we now need to quote leading opening delimiters when we want them inside the macro scope. These are the cases in src/bin.

pass "xerrok" status across the execution call stack to more closely match what both POSIX and ksh.1 already describe in regards to set -e/errexit's behavior in determining when to exit from nonzero return values.
specifically, the truth values tested as operands to `&&' and `||', as well as the resulting compound expression itself, along with the truth value resulting from a negated command (i.e. a pipeline prefixed `!'), should not make the shell exit when -e is in effect.

Add support for set -o pipefail
With the pipefail option set, the exit status of a pipeline is 0 if all commands succeed, or the return status of the rightmost command that fails. This can help stronger error checking, but is not a silver bullet. For example, commands will exhibit a non-zero exit status if they're killed by a SIGPIPE when writing to a pipe. Yet pipefail was considered useful enough to be included in the next POSIX standard.
This implementation remembers the value of the pipefail option when a pipeline is started, as described as option 1) in

More ksh POSIX compliance fixes by Martijn Dekker:
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.

Make set +o conform with POSIX.
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.

When the first argument or arguments of a macro are opening delimiters (parentheses and/or square brackets), both modern groff and mandoc first output those leading delimiters as plain text, then start the macro scope after these opening delimiters. This is similar to printing trailing punctuation and trailing closing delimiters on a macro line outside and after the macro scope. For example, ".Sq ( text )" is "(`text')", not "`(text)'". Thus, we now need to quote leading opening delimiters when we want them inside the macro scope. These are the cases in src/bin.

pass "xerrok" status across the execution call stack to more closely match what both POSIX and ksh.1 already describe in regards to set -e/errexit's behavior in determining when to exit from nonzero return values.
specifically, the truth values tested as operands to `&&' and `||', as well as the resulting compound expression itself, along with the truth value resulting from a negated command (i.e. a pipeline prefixed `!'), should not make the shell exit when -e is in effect.

Add support for set -o pipefail
With the pipefail option set, the exit status of a pipeline is 0 if all commands succeed, or the return status of the rightmost command that fails. This can help stronger error checking, but is not a silver bullet. For example, commands will exhibit a non-zero exit status if they're killed by a SIGPIPE when writing to a pipe. Yet pipefail was considered useful enough to be included in the next POSIX standard.
This implementation remembers the value of the pipefail option when a pipeline is started, as described as option 1) in

More ksh POSIX compliance fixes by Martijn Dekker:
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.

Make set +o conform with POSIX.
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.

When the first argument or arguments of a macro are opening delimiters (parentheses and/or square brackets), both modern groff and mandoc first output those leading delimiters as plain text, then start the macro scope after these opening delimiters. This is similar to printing trailing punctuation and trailing closing delimiters on a macro line outside and after the macro scope. For example, ".Sq ( text )" is "(`text')", not "`(text)'". Thus, we now need to quote leading opening delimiters when we want them inside the macro scope. These are the cases in src/bin.

Add support for set -o pipefail
With the pipefail option set, the exit status of a pipeline is 0 if all commands succeed, or the return status of the rightmost command that fails. This can help stronger error checking, but is not a silver bullet. For example, commands will exhibit a non-zero exit status if they're killed by a SIGPIPE when writing to a pipe. Yet pipefail was considered useful enough to be included in the next POSIX standard.
This implementation remembers the value of the pipefail option when a pipeline is started, as described as option 1) in

Do not handle echo "`echo \"hi\"`" in POSIX mode differently than in 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.

More ksh POSIX compliance fixes by Martijn Dekker:
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.

Make set +o conform with POSIX.
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.

When the first argument or arguments of a macro are opening delimiters (parentheses and/or square brackets), both modern groff and mandoc first output those leading delimiters as plain text, then start the macro scope after these opening delimiters. This is similar to printing trailing punctuation and trailing closing delimiters on a macro line outside and after the macro scope. For example, ".Sq ( text )" is "(`text')", not "`(text)'". Thus, we now need to quote leading opening delimiters when we want them inside the macro scope. These are the cases in src/bin.

pass "xerrok" status across the execution call stack to more closely match what both POSIX and ksh.1 already describe in regards to set -e/errexit's behavior in determining when to exit from nonzero return values.
specifically, the truth values tested as operands to `&&' and `||', as well as the resulting compound expression itself, along with the truth value resulting from a negated command (i.e. a pipeline prefixed `!'), should not make the shell exit when -e is in effect.

In emacs editing mode, ksh by default interprets a set 8th bit as meta prefix, i.e. all characters with the top bit set (>= 0x80) are taken as commands and cannot be entered literally.
Introduce a new shell option, emacs-usemeta, that allows to toggle this behavior. The default is the traditional behavior; to enter 8-bit characters use "set +o emacs-usemeta".

Add support for set -o pipefail
With the pipefail option set, the exit status of a pipeline is 0 if all commands succeed, or the return status of the rightmost command that fails. This can help stronger error checking, but is not a silver bullet. For example, commands will exhibit a non-zero exit status if they're killed by a SIGPIPE when writing to a pipe. Yet pipefail was considered useful enough to be included in the next POSIX standard.
This implementation remembers the value of the pipefail option when a pipeline is started, as described as option 1) in

More ksh POSIX compliance fixes by Martijn Dekker:
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.

Make set +o conform with POSIX.
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.

in some cases i have rewritten the lists as -tag, where -column made little sense.

When the first argument or arguments of a macro are opening delimiters (parentheses and/or square brackets), both modern groff and mandoc first output those leading delimiters as plain text, then start the macro scope after these opening delimiters. This is similar to printing trailing punctuation and trailing closing delimiters on a macro line outside and after the macro scope. For example, ".Sq ( text )" is "(`text')", not "`(text)'". Thus, we now need to quote leading opening delimiters when we want them inside the macro scope. These are the cases in src/bin.

pass "xerrok" status across the execution call stack to more closely match what both POSIX and ksh.1 already describe in regards to set -e/errexit's behavior in determining when to exit from nonzero return values.
specifically, the truth values tested as operands to `&&' and `||', as well as the resulting compound expression itself, along with the truth value resulting from a negated command (i.e. a pipeline prefixed `!'), should not make the shell exit when -e is in effect.

Introduce a new shell option, emacs-usemeta, that allows to toggle this behavior. The default is the traditional behavior; to enter 8-bit characters use "set +o emacs-usemeta".

More ksh POSIX compliance fixes by Martijn Dekker:
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.

Make set +o conform with POSIX.
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.

make -column lists pretty again;
specifically, rewrite them to permit some markup in the column headers, and use "Ta" instead of literal tabs; mandoc does not currently match groff 100%, but a mandoc fix may be some time off, and we've gone enough releases with poorly formatting column lists.
in some cases i have rewritten the lists as -tag, where -column made little sense.

When the first argument or arguments of a macro are opening delimiters (parentheses and/or square brackets), both modern groff and mandoc first output those leading delimiters as plain text, then start the macro scope after these opening delimiters. This is similar to printing trailing punctuation and trailing closing delimiters on a macro line outside and after the macro scope. For example, ".Sq ( text )" is "(`text')", not "`(text)'". Thus, we now need to quote leading opening delimiters when we want them inside the macro scope. These are the cases in src/bin.

pass "xerrok" status across the execution call stack to more closely match what both POSIX and ksh.1 already describe in regards to set -e/errexit's behavior in determining when to exit from nonzero return values.
specifically, the truth values tested as operands to `&&' and `||', as well as the resulting compound expression itself, along with the truth value resulting from a negated command (i.e. a pipeline prefixed `!'), should not make the shell exit when -e is in effect.

More ksh POSIX compliance fixes by Martijn Dekker:
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.

Make set +o conform with POSIX.
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.

When the first argument or arguments of a macro are opening delimiters (parentheses and/or square brackets), both modern groff and mandoc first output those leading delimiters as plain text, then start the macro scope after these opening delimiters. This is similar to printing trailing punctuation and trailing closing delimiters on a macro line outside and after the macro scope. For example, ".Sq ( text )" is "(`text')", not "`(text)'". Thus, we now need to quote leading opening delimiters when we want them inside the macro scope. These are the cases in src/bin.

Introduce a new shell option, emacs-usemeta, that allows to toggle this behavior. The default is the traditional behavior; to enter 8-bit characters use "set +o emacs-usemeta".

Markup improvements: 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.

Do not handle echo "`echo \"hi\"`" in POSIX mode differently than in 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.

More ksh POSIX compliance fixes by Martijn Dekker:
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.

Make set +o conform with POSIX.
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.

When the first argument or arguments of a macro are opening delimiters (parentheses and/or square brackets), both modern groff and mandoc first output those leading delimiters as plain text, then start the macro scope after these opening delimiters. This is similar to printing trailing punctuation and trailing closing delimiters on a macro line outside and after the macro scope. For example, ".Sq ( text )" is "(`text')", not "`(text)'". Thus, we now need to quote leading opening delimiters when we want them inside the macro scope. These are the cases in src/bin.

pass "xerrok" status across the execution call stack to more closely match what both POSIX and ksh.1 already describe in regards to set -e/errexit's behavior in determining when to exit from nonzero return values.
specifically, the truth values tested as operands to `&&' and `||', as well as the resulting compound expression itself, along with the truth value resulting from a negated command (i.e. a pipeline prefixed `!'), should not make the shell exit when -e is in effect.

In emacs editing mode, ksh by default interprets a set 8th bit as meta prefix, i.e. all characters with the top bit set (>= 0x80) are taken as commands and cannot be entered literally.
Introduce a new shell option, emacs-usemeta, that allows to toggle this behavior. The default is the traditional behavior; to enter 8-bit characters use "set +o emacs-usemeta".

More ksh POSIX compliance fixes by Martijn Dekker:
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.

Make set +o conform with POSIX.
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.

specifically, rewrite them to permit some markup in the column headers, and use "Ta" instead of literal tabs; mandoc does not currently match groff 100%, but a mandoc fix may be some time off, and we've gone enough releases with poorly formatting column lists.
in some cases i have rewritten the lists as -tag, where -column made little sense.

When the first argument or arguments of a macro are opening delimiters (parentheses and/or square brackets), both modern groff and mandoc first output those leading delimiters as plain text, then start the macro scope after these opening delimiters. This is similar to printing trailing punctuation and trailing closing delimiters on a macro line outside and after the macro scope. For example, ".Sq ( text )" is "(`text')", not "`(text)'". Thus, we now need to quote leading opening delimiters when we want them inside the macro scope. These are the cases in src/bin.

pass "xerrok" status across the execution call stack to more closely match what both POSIX and ksh.1 already describe in regards to set -e/errexit's behavior in determining when to exit from nonzero return values.
specifically, the truth values tested as operands to `&&' and `||', as well as the resulting compound expression itself, along with the truth value resulting from a negated command (i.e. a pipeline prefixed `!'), should not make the shell exit when -e is in effect.

More ksh POSIX compliance fixes by Martijn Dekker:
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.

Make set +o conform with POSIX.
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.

When the first argument or arguments of a macro are opening delimiters (parentheses and/or square brackets), both modern groff and mandoc first output those leading delimiters as plain text, then start the macro scope after these opening delimiters. This is similar to printing trailing punctuation and trailing closing delimiters on a macro line outside and after the macro scope. For example, ".Sq ( text )" is "(`text')", not "`(text)'". Thus, we now need to quote leading opening delimiters when we want them inside the macro scope. These are the cases in src/bin.

pass "xerrok" status across the execution call stack to more closely match what both POSIX and ksh.1 already describe in regards to set -e/errexit's behavior in determining when to exit from nonzero return values.
specifically, the truth values tested as operands to `&&' and `||', as well as the resulting compound expression itself, along with the truth value resulting from a negated command (i.e. a pipeline prefixed `!'), should not make the shell exit when -e is in effect.

Do not handle echo "`echo \"hi\"`" in POSIX mode differently than in 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.

More ksh POSIX compliance fixes by Martijn Dekker:
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.

Make set +o conform with POSIX.
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.

When the first argument or arguments of a macro are opening delimiters (parentheses and/or square brackets), both modern groff and mandoc first output those leading delimiters as plain text, then start the macro scope after these opening delimiters. This is similar to printing trailing punctuation and trailing closing delimiters on a macro line outside and after the macro scope. For example, ".Sq ( text )" is "(`text')", not "`(text)'". Thus, we now need to quote leading opening delimiters when we want them inside the macro scope. These are the cases in src/bin.

Introduce a new shell option, emacs-usemeta, that allows to toggle this behavior. The default is the traditional behavior; to enter 8-bit characters use "set +o emacs-usemeta".

More ksh POSIX compliance fixes by Martijn Dekker:
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.

Make set +o conform with POSIX.
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.

in some cases i have rewritten the lists as -tag, where -column made little sense.

When the first argument or arguments of a macro are opening delimiters (parentheses and/or square brackets), both modern groff and mandoc first output those leading delimiters as plain text, then start the macro scope after these opening delimiters. This is similar to printing trailing punctuation and trailing closing delimiters on a macro line outside and after the macro scope. For example, ".Sq ( text )" is "(`text')", not "`(text)'". Thus, we now need to quote leading opening delimiters when we want them inside the macro scope. These are the cases in src/bin.

pass "xerrok" status across the execution call stack to more closely match what both POSIX and ksh.1 already describe in regards to set -e/errexit's behavior in determining when to exit from nonzero return values.
specifically, the truth values tested as operands to `&&' and `||', as well as the resulting compound expression itself, along with the truth value resulting from a negated command (i.e. a pipeline prefixed `!'), should not make the shell exit when -e is in effect.

In emacs editing mode, ksh by default interprets a set 8th bit as meta prefix, i.e. all characters with the top bit set (>= 0x80) are taken as commands and cannot be entered literally.
Introduce a new shell option, emacs-usemeta, that allows to toggle this behavior. The default is the traditional behavior; to enter 8-bit characters use "set +o emacs-usemeta".

More ksh POSIX compliance fixes by Martijn Dekker:
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.

Make set +o conform with POSIX.
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.

When the first argument or arguments of a macro are opening delimiters (parentheses and/or square brackets), both modern groff and mandoc first output those leading delimiters as plain text, then start the macro scope after these opening delimiters. This is similar to printing trailing punctuation and trailing closing delimiters on a macro line outside and after the macro scope. For example, ".Sq ( text )" is "(`text')", not "`(text)'". Thus, we now need to quote leading opening delimiters when we want them inside the macro scope. These are the cases in src/bin.

pass "xerrok" status across the execution call stack to more closely match what both POSIX and ksh.1 already describe in regards to set -e/errexit's behavior in determining when to exit from nonzero return values.
specifically, the truth values tested as operands to `&&' and `||', as well as the resulting compound expression itself, along with the truth value resulting from a negated command (i.e. a pipeline prefixed `!'), should not make the shell exit when -e is in effect.

Bug fixes from pdksh-unstable-5.2.13.4, including "official" versions of some that we had already fixed locally. o typeset -f FUNC doesn't print follows command (and expression) substitutions. o when re-allocating memory, too much may be copied from old memory. o set -o printed some options sans names. o emacs mode: <esc>. in very fist command causes core dump. o pdksh dumps core after a cd command. o typeset -i reports on array elements that have no value (at&t ksh reports on array base name - no index). o ulimit -ctn unlimittttted kills shell (resource exceeded). o ". /dev/null" says access denied. o flag field in aliases incorrectly changed (all flags set instead of clearing ISSET) in exec.c(flushcom). o ${#array[*]} prints largest index instead of number of (set) elements in an array (ksh88 does the former). o sys_siglist[] doesn't always have NSIG non-null entries...

Do not handle echo "`echo \"hi\"`" in POSIX mode differently than in 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.

More ksh POSIX compliance fixes by Martijn Dekker:
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.

Make set +o conform with POSIX.
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.

When the first argument or arguments of a macro are opening delimiters (parentheses and/or square brackets), both modern groff and mandoc first output those leading delimiters as plain text, then start the macro scope after these opening delimiters. This is similar to printing trailing punctuation and trailing closing delimiters on a macro line outside and after the macro scope. For example, ".Sq ( text )" is "(`text')", not "`(text)'". Thus, we now need to quote leading opening delimiters when we want them inside the macro scope. These are the cases in src/bin.

specifically, the truth values tested as operands to `&&' and `||', as well as the resulting compound expression itself, along with the truth value resulting from a negated command (i.e. a pipeline prefixed `!'), should not make the shell exit when -e is in effect.

In emacs editing mode, ksh by default interprets a set 8th bit as meta prefix, i.e. all characters with the top bit set (>= 0x80) are taken as commands and cannot be entered literally.
Introduce a new shell option, emacs-usemeta, that allows to toggle this behavior. The default is the traditional behavior; to enter 8-bit characters use "set +o emacs-usemeta".
