Hi,
it should be noted that the mksh realpath builtin behaves as
is documented in its manual page, i.e. different:
realpath [--] name
Prints the resolved absolute pathname corresponding to name. If
name ends with a slash ('/'), it's also checked for existence and
whether it is a directory; otherwise, realpath returns 0 if the
pathname either exists or can be created immediately, i.e. all but
the last component exist and are directories.
This is not a change request (and realpath-the-package can
always still be called by running $(which realpath) after
all), just a heads-up. (The realpath builtin’s ready-for-
creation criterium is actual user demand. The code is also
used internally a lot.)
bye,

FWIW, I'm quite impressed with mksh interactively. I thought it was much
*much* more bare bones. But it turns out it beats the living hell out of
ksh93 in that respect. I'd even consider it for my daily use if I hadn't
wasted half my life on my zsh setup. :-) -- Frank Terbeck in #!/bin/mksh
