MSH(VII) 6/15/72 MSH(VII)
NAME
msh - mini-shell
SYNOPSIS
/etc/msh
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 command.
The mini-shell supports few of the advanced features of the
Shell; none of the following characters is special:
> < $ \ ; & | ^
However, ``*'', ``['', and ``?'' are recognized and glob is
called. The main use of msh is to provide a command-
executing facility for various interactive sub-systems.
