-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'd like to provide dash as a cygwin package (it built out of the box, and I needed it to investigate a portability problem reported against autoconf). In some respects, dash is faster than bash, but for now, I'm happy keeping /bin/sh as bash (not dash), in particular since most autoconf scripts will favor bash over dash until dash implements LINENO support.
# setup for dash sdesc: "dash shell" ldesc: "DASH is a POSIX-compliant implementation of /bin/sh that aims to be as small as possible. It does this without sacrificing speed where possible. In fact, it is significantly faster than bash (the GNU Bourne-Again SHell) for most tasks." category: Shells requires: cygwin #Maintainer: Eric Blake http://home.comcast.net/~ericblake/dash/setup.hint http://home.comcast.net/~ericblake/dash/dash-0.5.5.1-1.tar.bz2 http://home.comcast.net/~ericblake/dash/dash-0.5.5.1-1-src.tar.bz2 - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
