In ksh I know only of '!', a single unquoted literal exclamation mark.

But never mind. - My goal was just to not constantly see in my shell
instances what appears to me to look like an inconsistency. - Another
(bash-)prompt posting inspired me to post. But I also know only few
folks use ksh nowadays, most use bash, so I didn't really expect any
"solution" (sort of). Functionally there's no apparent drawback, so I
can live with it. Thanks.
