The MirOS Korn Shell is a quite complete posix shell implementation, is rather small and supports vi mode properly.

The MirBSD Korn Shell,
|
||
|
||
mksh is a successor of pdksh but not affiliated with the
|
||
pdksh developers or contributors. mksh is not affiliated
|
||
with the AT&T Korn Shell, its past or present owners,
|
||
other than that both attempt to implement the Korn Shell
|
||
programming language.
|
||
|
||
mksh targets users who desire a compact, fast, reliable,
|
||
secure shell not cut off modern extensions; a shell with
|
||
Unicode support; an actively developed, current, and
|
||
portable product; one with developers that listen to
|
||
their users’ requests and implement them if they
|
||
actually make sense.
|
||
|
||
mksh aims to replace pdksh in all but very rare use cases
|
||
(such as support for checking the Unix mbox) and in all
|
||
operating environments
|
||
(thus including patches from pdksh on e.g. Debian).
