Patch from current ksh93 maintainer <https://github.com/ksh93/ksh>. cde/programs/dtksh/ksh93/**: - Upgraded. A load of bugs fixed, some minor features added. See NEWS from 2021-02-01 upwards. cde/programs/dtksh/Makefile.am: - Don't cd into ksh93 any more to invoke the package or shtests scripts; they now automatically find their directories. - Pass $(CFLAGS) to build ksh with optimisation. - Remove -D_std_malloc flag as vmalloc is now deprecated and disabled by default. - Add a 'make check' target to Makefile.am that runs the ksh93 regression tests on dtksh to make sure the additions don't interfere with anything. It skips running the tests with shcomp because CDE doesn't use that. The tests all pass here on Slackware 14.2. :-) cde/programs/dtksh/init.patch: - Removed; I've upstreamed it. It was the only one that wasn't upstreamed yet, and more code cleanups are coming, breaking downstream patches. If something needs updating, just email me a diff. cde/programs/dtksh/dtkcmds.h: - Update the ADDBUILTIN macro to remove the __PROTO__ macro use. The proto(1) tool, responsible for all such pre-C89 K&R C compatibility voodoo, has been removed, so that macro is no longer defined. cde/programs/dtksh/setup.sh: - Workaround script removed. I rewrote 'bin/package flat make' in a way that works correctly and changed Makefile.am to use that instead. Hope this helps. Happy new year.

Downloading
Downloading this release:
CDE may be downloaded in source form from the Common Desktop Environment website:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/cdesktopenv/
Or via git:
git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/cdesktopenv/code CDE
The git repository will always be more up to date than the downloadable tarballs we make available, so if you have problems, please try the latest version from git master.
Note also that the master branch may be unstable, so your milage may vary.
Compiling
Complete build and installation instructions can be found on the CDE wiki:
http://sourceforge.net/p/cdesktopenv/wiki/Home/
Please go there and read the appropriate section(s) for your OS (Linux or FreeBSD/OpenBSD/NetBSD currently) prior to attmpting to build it.
There are a variety of dependencies that must be met, as well as specific set up steps required to build, especially relating localization and locales.
Do not expect to just type 'make' and have it actually work without meeting the prerequisites and following the correct steps as spelled out on the wiki.
There are also a lot of other documents and information there that you might find useful.
Assuming you've met all of the requirements regarding packages needed for the build, you can follow the standard autoconf method:
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure
$ make
$ sudo make install
NOTE: BSD users must currently install and use gmake to compile, as well as specify the location of the TCL libraries and headers. So the instructions for them would looke like:
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure --with-tcl=/usr/local/lib/tcl8.6 MAKE="gmake"
$ gmake
$ sudo gmake install
