Mksh for Mac Software Download - Softpas.com

Description:

mksh (MirBSD Korn Shell) is a DFSG-free and OSD-compliant successor to pdksh, developed as part of the MirOS Project as native bourne/POSIX/korn shell for MirOS BSD, but also to be readily available under other UNIX-like operating systems.

To compile mksh, you will need a bourne or POSIX shell (Solaris /bin/sh is enough, and the Z shell should work), a C compiler (at the moment, only the one from the GNU Compiler Collection works, but we're attempting to change this), system and C library header files and the standard C runtime.

You will also need a set of standard UNIX tools on a supported operating system: any recent BSD; Darwin, Apple Mac OSX; Interix (Microsoft Services for Unix 3.5, maybe Subsystem for Unix Applications); GNU/Cygwin; UWIN; GNU/Linux (libc5, glibc, and uClibc systems are tested), Debian GNU/kFreeBSD, GNU/HURD or GNU/Linux; Sun Solaris (8, 9, 10, 11), OpenSolaris; some AIX; HP-UX 11i; OSF/1

To be able to use mksh, you will only need the C runtime (and any supplemental libraries the binary was linked against) and, optionally, /bin/ed for interactive use, a controlling terminal is highly recommended because job control does not work without.

If you do not want to compile mksh for your Mac by yourself, you can use the mksh package delivered through Fink by Andreas "gecko2" Gockel at pdb.finkproject.org.
