WG: [dev] [stali] Why lksh?

Legacy mode is only set in build.sh when using the -L flag. Which is the way to build lksh according to the build documentation.

I built stali from source and I see some more things that I find surprising:

- No command line editing in sh
- echo $KSH_VERSION replies _AT_(#)LEGACY KSH R52 2016/03/04
- I see a flag MKSH_LEGACY_MODE in mksh's stali.mk.

Is the binary really mksh, not lksh?

Hi Bruno,

Looks like a man page fault to me, probably lksh.1 is copied over
sh.1. The binary should be definitely mksh.

Cheers,
Anselm
