PACKAGE DESCRIPTION
===================

Homepage: http://packages.debian.org/unstable/posh
License : GPL

A stripped-down version of pdksh that aims for close compliance of
POSIX. Posh is intended to be used for revealing if /bin/sh scripts
use features that most /bin/sh shells do not have. Originally this
shell was developed by the Debian project to ensure that
administrative shell scripts in /etc/init.d adhered to the policy
guidelines: POSIX compliance with few exceptions like the use of
'local' keyword. For this reason the manual page announces
'Policy-compliant Ordinary SHell'.
