OpenBSD sh and ksh differences?
Hi,
I am running OpenBSD 3.7, my first attempt with this OS. I noticed that both /bin/sh and /bin/ksh are both really the pdksh. Yet each has its own manpage. I was wondering what are the differences b/w the two programs on OpenBSD. I.e., has the team configured pdksh to function one way if invoked as "ksh", while functionning differntly if invoked as "sh". (Compare GHU bash, which behaves slightly differntly when invoked as "sh".)
Thanks,
