Sign in to saveAlso known as ksh, ksh93, ast-ksh
KornShell (ksh) is a Unix shell which was developed by David Korn at Bell Labs in the early 1980s and announced at USENIX on July 14, 1983. The initial development was based on Bourne shell source code. Other early contributors were Bell Labs developers Mike Veach and Pat Sullivan, who wrote the Emacs and vi-style line editing modes' code, respectively. KornShell is backward-compatible with the Bourne shell and includes many features of the C shell, inspired by the requests of Bell Labs users.

Korn shell (ksh) — командная оболочка UNIX, разработана Дэвидом Корном (AT&T) в 1980-x годах. Имеет полную обратную совместимость с Bourne shell и включает в себя возможности C shell. Является стандартом де-факто и используется по умолчанию в некоторых Unix-системах, например, в AIX, OpenBSD и QNX. Имеет развитую систему горячих клавиш. До 2000 года код оболочки был закрытым.
