Project Description

V6 Thompson Shell Port provides two ports of the original /bin/sh from Sixth Edition (V6) UNIX (circa 1975). osh is an enhanced port of the shell, and sh6 is an unenhanced port of the shell. This project also includes glob6, if, goto, and fd2 as external shell utilities. While they remain external for compatible use by sh6, these utilities are integrated into osh to improve shell performance.

This release adds a configure case for DragonFly
BSD to prevent a
"config.h" compilation warning. It fixes a bug
introduced in version
20081026 which causes the shell to incorrectly
print empty termination
messages for the SIGINT signal in some cases when
it should not do
so. It also fixes a bug introduced in version
20061230 which causes
the shell to incorrectly handle unescaped
terminating backslash (\)
characters at the end of strings when invoked as
"osh -c string".
