Name        : mksh
Product     : Fedora 7
Version     : 33d
Release     : 1.fc7
URL         : http://www.mirbsd.de/mksh/
Summary     : MirBSD enhanced version of the Korn Shell
Description :
mksh is the MirBSD enhanced version of the Public Domain Korn shell (pdksh),
a bourne-compatible shell which is largely similar to the original AT&T Korn
shell. It includes bug fixes and feature improvements in order to produce a
modern, robust shell good for interactive and especially script use, being a
bourne shell replacement, pdksh successor and an alternative to the C shell.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

A tty's I/O is now flushed before using it when attaching mksh to a different
tty than the current terminal using "mksh -T". This fixes a problem where users
could have already typed on some other (previously unused) virtual console, and
the shell would execute these commands once spawned. The path to "ls" is no
longer hard-coded in dot.mkshrc.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.  Use 
su -c 'yum update mksh' at the command line.
For more information, refer to "Managing Software with yum",
available at http://docs.fedoraproject.org/yum/.
