   wish someone would make a sh-compatible modern shell without 50 million subtly small bugs everywhere

     @psykose @tthbaltazar Haha reminds me that I have to ^X e in mksh (which has it’s own readline-like code) for some characters like this one.

     @psykose @tthbaltazar Well IIRC it's stuff outside the BMP that doesn't works right for mksh, which is still a lot of unicode these days. And proper unicode support in /bin/sh implementations would probably mean a whole redesign like having a separated interactive part so you could grab libraries like ICU and not end up in a dependency loop.

     @lanodan @tthbaltazar (it has been 500 years and some unixboomers haven't gotten the memo that something non-ascii exists)
