About ksh 93u+m
ksh 93u+m continues development of the KornShell from its last stable AT&T release, 93u+ from 2012. The project fixes bugs and adds new features to the shell, and publishes regular releases alongside the current development version in source form.
It suits people who write or maintain KornShell scripts, administrators on systems where ksh is the expected shell, and anyone who prefers ksh as an interactive shell over Bash or Zsh.
