373	Support plain POSIX /bin/sh (Bourne shell) as subshell	slyfox		"Many environments provide POSIX compliant /bin/sh shell symlinking to:

* busybox: ash, hush
* debian: dash

(passwd entry usually contains /bin/sh for them)

* They are mostly supported via symlink resolution (see #2742)
* Maybe even better support is possible by interacting with shell (see #3692)

Some systems provide ""real"" plain Bourne shell, like FreeBSD or Solaris.

These shells are not supported at the moment. Whether support is possible at all with some sort of precmd emulation via PS1 tricks is to be investigated.

The current state of the art is that due to missing variable expansion it's not possible. Please reopen if you have new research and/or patches."	enhancement	closed	major		mc-core	4.6.2	wontfix					no branch
