                          Earlier versions of the Korn shell (ksh) allowed aliases to be exported to subshells by using the -x option, for example:

    alias -x dog=cat

With the current version of macOS the ksh man page says:

    "The obsolete -x option has no effect."

Is there an alternate way to export aliases in macOS in ksh without putting them in .kshrc?
