Hello,
Today, I'm happy to present you the Debian package pdksh, which is part
of the shells section, and maintained by Robert Luberda
<robert at debian.org>.
This package contains : A public domain version of the Korn shell.
PD-ksh is a mostly complete AT&T ksh look-alike (see NOTES file for a list
of things not supported). Work is currently underway to make it fully
compatible with both POSIX and AT&T ksh (when the two don't conflict).
Since pdksh is free and compiles and runs on most common Unix systems,
it is very useful in creating a consistent user interface across multiple
machines. For example, in the CS department of MUN, pdksh is installed
on a variety of machines including Suns, HPs, DecStations, PCs running
Linux, etc., and is the login shell of ~4500 users.
