Unix shell scripting geekery

I created and maintain the Modernish shell library which offers interesting features and greatly improves some of the main weaknesses in conventional shell scripting languages.

Since May 2020, I maintain ksh 93u+m, the only currently maintained version of the Korn shell, originally by David Korn of AT&T Research. It is a direct descendant of the original Bourne shell, so it is historically a very interesting project, and an engaging challenge to fix and modernise. On 2022-08-01, I released ksh 93u+m/1.0.0, the first stable ksh release in precisely a decade. :)
