NAME msh -- mini-shell
SYNOPSIS --
DESCRIPTION msh is a heavily simplified version of the Shell.
It reads one line from the standard input file,
interprets it as a command, and calls the com-
mand.
The mini-shell supports few of the advanced fea-
tures of the Shell; none of the following charac-
ters is special:
> < $ \ ; &
However, "*" and "?" are recognized and glob is
called. The main use of msh is to provide a
command-executing facility for various interac-
tive sub-systems.
