The MirBSD Korn Shell R45 has been
released today, and R44 has been named the new stable/bugfix-only series.
(That’s version 45.1, not 0.45, dear Homebrew/MacOSX packagers.)

Packagers rejoice: the -DMKSH_GCC55009 dance is no ... [More] longer needed,
and even the run-time check for integer division is gone. Why? Because I
realised one cannot use signed integers in C, at all, and rewrote the mksh(1)
arithmetics code to use unsigned integers only. Special thanks to the people
from musl libc and, to some lesser
amount, Natureshadow for providing me with ideas what algorithms to replace
some functionality with (signed shell arithmetic is, of course, still usable,
it is just emulated using unsigned C integers now).

The following entertainment…

tg@blau:~ $ echo foo >/bar\ baz
/bin/mksh: can't create /bar baz: Permission denied
1|tg@blau:~ $ doch
tg@blau:~ $ cat /bar\ baz
foo

… was provided by Tonnerre Lombard; like Swedish, German has
got a number of words that cannot be expressed in English so I feel
not up to the task of explaining this to people who don’t know the
German word “doch”, just rest assured it calls the last input line
(be careful, this is literally a line, so don’t use backslash-newline
sequences) using sudo(8). [Less]

The MirBSD Korn Shell must-have
bugfix releases R42b (for the current formal release series) and
R41c (for the last bugfix-only stable series) have been issued.
Debian testing/unstable users get the fixes through their package
... [More] management, versioned 40.9.20120630-7 targetting wheezy (hopefully).
Debian experimental users will receive a 42b-1 upload, closer to
what other distro packages provide, soonish, targetting jessie.

Since we lack anything better (that, unless Freshmeat, is actually
usable), by request of our packagers, new mksh(1) releases will be
announced on our miros-mksh@ mailing
list starting now. [Less]
