All its commands are internal and thus does not rely on the c: commands for any functionality. Major features include: -command line editing -shell & Amigados search path support -simple history -redirection of any command -piping -aliases -variables & variable handling (embedded variables) -file name expansion via conventional wild carding ('?', '*' and more) -conditionals (if/else ect..) -source files (w/ gotos and labels) -many built in commands to speed things up New to 4.02A: - Fixed bug that caused loss of memory on exit. - cp now copies protection bits; use -f switch if you want to avoid this. - Added commands: man (and alias manlist), uniq, head, tail, tee. - This doc has been reformatted to work with man.
