KSH-93 is the most recent version of the KornShell Language described
in "The KornShell Command and Programming Language," by Morris
Bolsky and David Korn of AT&T Bell Laboratories.  The KornShell is
a shell programming language, which is upward compatible with "sh"
(the Bourne Shell), and is intended to conform to the IEEE P1003.2/ISO
9945.2 Shell and Utilities standard.  KSH-93 provides an enhanced
programming environment in addition to the major command-entry
features of the BSD shell "csh".  With KSH-93, medium-sized programming
tasks can be performed at shell-level without a significant loss
in performance.  In addition, "sh" scripts can be run on KSH-93
without modification.

SIZEify.

BROKEN: Distfile is unfetchable

Drop maintainership.  I don't use this.
The license is byzantine and restrictive, the build system is complex
and unlike any other, the codebase doesn't inspire confidence.

Re-enable statvfs() tests now that -CURRENT has the function.

Improve build reliability:
* Make very sure that the build script is run with /bin/sh.
* Add a dubious patch to libast/comp/conf.sh that is reported to fix
  the build for some -STABLE users.

Install example functions.

Build in a clean environment to prevent sporadic interference from
environment variables.

Requested by:   Ken Stailey <kstailey@speakeasy.net>

-CURRENT has <sys/statvfs.h> but no actual statvfs() implementation,
which badly confuses the configure tests that check for this
functionality.  Remove the tests for the time being.

Update to release 2002-03-17.

Use ${ECHO_CMD} instead of ${ECHO} where you mean the echo command;   the ECHO
macro is set to "echo" by default, but it is set to "true" if   make(1) is
invoked with the -s option while ECHO_CMD is always set to   the echo command.  
 

Fix LC_NUMERIC locale bug.    

* Update to release 2001-10-31.   * Re-enable WANT_STATIC.   * Remove license
check and "Proprietary Notice" since we won't distribute     a package.   * Move
notice about locale bug to pkg-descr.    

Update my MAINTAINER address.    

- Remove BROKEN.   - Comment out WANT_STATIC, which is currently broken.   - Fix
an mbstate_t syntax error; from Mitch Tishmack <otomo@qwest.net>.   - Skip
unused floating point tests that prevent building on alpha.   - Point out
LC_NUMERIC problem in pkg-message.    

Update the files' checksums.   Remove a patch that is now incorporated in the
official sources.   Mark BROKEN until the maintainer (or somebody else) figures
out a way   to make it build again on FreeBSD.    

- remove DIST_SUBDIR   - touch -> ${TOUCH}   - add post-install target to update
/etc/shells (to match pkg-plist @exec)   - make sure to remove /etc/shells.bak  
 

Update ksh93 to 2001-07-04.0000 version.  Earlier distfiles are no   longer
available from AT&T.    

- Remove the custom do-extract target.   - Cleanup the do-build target.   -
Allow the ksh binary to be statically linked but default to dynamic     to
support dynamic loading of 'builtin' functions.    

Forgot to commit this file with the previous update to use the source   instead
of binary distribution.  

Build from source now that it is available starting with version  
2001-01-01.0000.    

Convert category shells to new layout.
