@rqm I switched to it years ago and display today’s+tomorrow’s events in every shell (from ~/.mkshrc) as that’s the only way I don’t miss appointments left and right.

If you use the #MirBSD implementation, which has an extra "parse for export" flag with support for time-of-day, you can have one-way conversion to #iCalendar, which you can then read-only subscribe to from e.g. smartphones, or Bloatzilla Thunderbird.

Two-way is unwise, they hve vastly different "mightyness", e.g. recurrence is handled differently, and #BSD #calendar can do offsets from Easter and so (and MirBSD’s also from Advent), and #if and #include and cpp comments, etc. (which I use heavily in my private calendar, I even have a script to pre-fill with comment headings for the next year per calendar week).

https://evolvis.org/~tg/calendars/ has my public calendars in both formats (and links for subscribing to them through Google, for those who use that). The conversion cronjob runs nightly, as it uses "today" as startpoint for recurring events.

TIL about MirBSD Korn Shell
Instead of talking about it here, I invite you to surf to the site and learn about it.

That's difficult to answer without a concrete idea of what a dependency is.

If it's who develops it, then #GhostBSD's major developers are in Canada, and #MirBSD's major developers are in the E.U./Switzerland.

If it's which BSDs would be unaffected if Microsoft-owned GitHub decided to pull the rug out from underneath them, then the answer is rather different.

Financial dependencies, and WWW/mail/other hosting dependencies, are different again.

#FreeBSD #OpenBSD #MidnightBSD #DragonFlyBSD #NetBSD

#MidnightBSD (by @laffer1; we have met) is the one with the cat in the logo.

#MirBSD (by yours truly) is the one with the cat on the central CVS server.

Know the difference!

@rl_dane hit the nail on the head.

This isn't really specific to completion. It's just general overlong input line editing behaviour.

The PD #KornShell and its derivatives (e.g. the #MirBSD Korn Shell) only have line editing with a single line that sideways scrolls.

ksh93, however, has a
set -o multiline
option for switching to a multiple-line line editing mode. (The Z and Bourne Again shells have similar.)

You might like the Watanabe shell. It's in ports.
