Yet Another Shell

Fork

Yet another shell (yash), version 2.49.

This version is a maintenance release.

• Added: --for-local option.
• Changed: The --no-unset option now rejects unset variables not only in parameter expansion but also in arithmetic expansion.
• Fixed: Expansion of ""$*, ""$@, $*"", and $@"" now correctly yields an empty string rather than nothing when there are no positional parameters.
• Fixed: The $RANDOM variable was expanding to a value larger than 32767 on some systems.
• Fixed: The \e escape sequence was not working in the "echo" built-in.
• Fixed: When a last command is a subshell, the parent shell's jobs were not being cleared when entering the subshell.
• Fixed: The job status was not being updated correctly if a process ID was reused by another process before the previous process was removed from the job list.
• Fixed: The "typeset" built-in now prints functions that contain a simple command whose command name is a keyword in a format that can successfully re-parsed by the shell.
• Updated completion scripts:
  • Fixed: Remote branch names are now correctly completed for the argument to Git remote/fetch/pull/push commands.
  • Fixed: Local pathname operands are now correctly completed for the rsync command.
