In Kornshell variable-attributes/properties are regularly specified using 'typeset' and thus the 'typeset' keyword is also used to create function-"local" variables. There's no 'local' keyword in Kornshell, and there's also no alias of that name defined for 'typeset'[*]. Janis [*] As opposed to the predefined aliases nameref='typeset -n' integer='typeset -i' float='typeset -E' etc.
