Which languages(think csh, ksh, bash, zsh..) compile into posix compatible sh?
Please include a brief description of the language.
I’m specifically looking for any languages that might remove (hide) the standard posix pitfalls, while still having the flexibility of transportation like posix.
The only tool I know that compiles “input” into POSIX
shisshar, which makes a “shell archive” out of the input files. It’s liketar(1), except ituuencode(1)s the output for transmission over usenet or email.No one has used it in years because the archives are executable files; simply unpacking a file requires giving someone else execution permission on your machine, which is patently stupid.
