Here’s a revised copy of the ksh fixes I submitted before that properly tests
for POSIX-compliant terminal handling capabilities rather than attempting to
get OLDTERMIO working. I think these patches are ready to be committed.
Kind regards,

Hi Chase,
Thanks to your advice about the submodule, I was able to make some progress.
Unfortunately, I am now getting a lot of errors from the headers, e.g.:

Would the original ksh93u work for those platforms?

I would like master to be merged, yes. I am a bit confused though, what
constitutes a path forward? I have satisfied all of the testing requirements

Hi, I went ahead and merged these to your master-ksh93-upgrade branch,

Hi Jon,
Thanks for the explanation, I can understand wanting to switch to a more common
build system. Could I volunteer to maintain a branch of CDE for what might be
considered legacy systems? I would really like the opportunity to work on
improving CDE, including making dtterm more VT100 compa
Hi Marcin,
Thanks for the idea. I was able to workaround the LFS64 issue (see the attached
patch) with the new ksh 93u, but I ran into some other issues with localization
(iswalpha is redefined for some reason) and ulimit support that are going to
