from the SVR4.2 shell.  The bash manual page explains these more
completely.

Things sh has that bash does not:
下边是sh有但是bash木有的
        uses variable SHACCT to do shell accounting
        includes `stop' builtin (bash can use alias stop='kill -s STOP')
        `newgrp' builtin
        turns on job control if called as `jsh'
        $TIMEOUT (like bash $TMOUT)
        `^' is a synonym for `|'
        new SVR4.2 sh builtins: mldmode, priv

Implementation differences:
执行情况的不同：
        redirection to/from compound commands causes sh to create a subshell
        bash does not allow unbalanced quotes; sh silently inserts them at EOF
        bash does not mess with signal 11
        sh sets (euid, egid) to (uid, gid) if -p not supplied and uid < 100
        bash splits only the results of expansions on IFS, using POSIX.2
                field splitting rules; sh splits all words on IFS
        sh does not allow MAILCHECK to be unset (?)
        sh does not allow traps on SIGALRM or SIGCHLD
        bash allows multiple option arguments when invoked (e.g. -x -v);
                sh allows only a single option argument (`sh -x -v' attempts
                to open a file named `-v', and, on SunOS 4.1.4, dumps core.
                On Solaris 2.4 and earlier versions, sh goes into an infinite
                loop.)
        sh exits a script if any builtin fails; bash exits only if one of
                the POSIX.2 `special' builtins fails

下边都和上边比较雷同了。。。大致浏览吧。

        prompt expansion with backslash escapes and command substitution
        redirection: &> (stdout and stderr), <<<, [n]<&word-, [n]>&word-
        more extensive and extensible editing and programmable completion
        builtins: bind, builtin, command, declare, dirs, echo -e/-E, enable,
                  exec -l/-c/-a, fc -s, export -n/-f/-p, hash, help, history,
                  jobs -x/-r/-s, kill -s/-n/-l, local, logout, popd, pushd,
                  read -e/-p/-a/-t/-n/-d/-s, readonly -a/-n/-f/-p,
                  set -o braceexpand/-o histexpand/-o interactive-comments/
                  -o notify/-o physical/-o posix/-o hashall/-o onecmd/
                  -h/-B/-C/-b/-H/-P, set +o, suspend, trap -l, type,
                  typeset -a/-F/-p, ulimit -u, umask -S, alias -p, shopt,
                  disown, printf, complete, compgen
        `!' csh-style history expansion
        POSIX.2-style globbing character classes
        POSIX.2-style globbing equivalence classes

        debugger support, including the `caller' builtin
        RETURN trap
        Timestamps in history entries
        {x..y} brace expansion

Things ksh88 has or uses that bash does not:
        tracked aliases (alias -t)
        variables: ERRNO, FPATH, EDITOR, VISUAL
        co-processes (|&, >&p, <&p)
        weirdly-scoped functions
        typeset +f to list all function names without definitions
        text of command history kept in a file, not memory
        builtins: alias -x, cd old new, newgrp, print,
                  read -p/-s/var?prompt, set -A/-o gmacs/
                  -o bgnice/-o markdirs/-o trackall/-o viraw/-s,
                  typeset -H/-L/-R/-Z/-A/-ft/-fu/-fx/-l/-u/-t, whence
        using environment to pass attributes of exported variables
        arithmetic evaluation done on arguments to some builtins
        reads .profile from $PWD when invoked as login shell

Implementation differences:
        ksh runs last command of a pipeline in parent shell context
        bash has brace expansion by default (ksh88 compile-time option)
        bash has fixed startup file for all interactive shells; ksh reads $ENV
        bash has exported functions
        bash command search finds functions before builtins
        bash waits for all commands in pipeline to exit before returning status
        emacs-mode editing has some slightly different key bindings
