mgksh
OpenBSD ksh(1) and mg(1) in a single static binary!
mgksh
This is a combination of
oksh, the portable OpenBSD ksh(1)
with mg, the portable OpenBSD mg(1).
mgksh(1) has mg embedded within the ksh shell.
When built statically, mgksh allows you to visually edit text files
when in single-user mode.
Why?
Because learning ed(1) is difficult.
Supported systems
mgksh should run everywhere that oksh and mg run.
Building
$ ./build.sh
This will build a statically linked binary ready to be installed into
/bin.
DO NOT RUN make DIRECTLY!
You may have to edit configure, Makefile, mg_config.h, and
pconfig.h to match your system. The default is for OpenBSD.
Bugs
There are still a number of outstanding bugs, particularly related to
subsequent invocations of mg. Patches welcome!
