Qshell

Qshell is a command environment based on POSIX and X/Open standards.

It consists of the following parts:

  • The shell interpreter (or qsh) is a program that reads commands from an input source, interprets each command, and then runs the command using the services of the operating system.
  • The utilities (or commands) are external programs that provide additional functions and can be quite simple or very complex.
