TLDR: OSC7 from the shell, IMO.
Given that I use st/zsh on OpenBSD more than Linux and wanted to add
some 9term/rc mouse features to its glory, I tried quite a few tricks
to get the current shell cwd.
I decided on using the OSC7 approach, ie push from the shell to st,
which introduced short and generic code in st and seems supported by
many shells.
I have not tried ksh though but worst case scenario, you need a "cd"
alias and some "printf".
I have been using it daily without troubles since I published it.
Oh, and it's great to be able to use the mouse to plumb any arbitrary string.
