Description
This is a reimplementation for Unix, by Byron Rakitzis, of the Plan 9 shell. The original rc was designed and implemented by Tom Duff at Bell Labs. It has a small feature set similar to a traditional Bourne shell, but with a much cleaner and simpler syntax. Among other things, this makes rc much better than Bourne-compatible shells at handling filenames which contain spaces. Thus, writing rc scripts is less error-prone than writing sh scripts.
Install
As a binary package — by origin, or by package name:
pkg install shells/rc
pkg install rc
From the ports tree:
cd /usr/ports/shells/rc/ && make install clean
To depend on this port in another port's Makefile:
RUN_DEPENDS= rc>0:shells/rc
