Welcome to Etsh (V6Sh) - etsh-current #24 !

Etsh provides 2 ports of the original /bin/sh from V6 UNIX (circa 1975).
"/bin/sh from V6 UNIX" == "V6 Thompson sh(1)" == "V6 UNIX sh(1)", or
a variation of "V6 sh(1)" || "V6 Sh" || "V6Sh" =^)

Etsh(1) is an enhanced, backward-compatible port of it.  Tsh(1) is
an unenhanced port of it, and Glob(1) is a port of its global command.
Together, tsh & glob provide a user interface which is backward compatible
with that provided by the V6 Thompson shell & global command, but without
the obvious enhancements found in etsh.

The original Thompson shell was principally written by Ken Thompson
of Bell Labs.

Each port (etsh & tsh) also includes the following shell utilities:

    if(1)   - conditional command (ported from V6 UNIX)

    goto(1) - transfer command (ported from V6 UNIX)

    fd2(1)  - redirect from/to file descriptor 2

They are built into etsh and are external for tsh.
In both cases, these utilities are required for each shell
to be a completely functional port.

See the INSTALL file for build and install instructions.

The etsh source code should build successfully on any POSIX-compliant
UNIX system.  It has been reported to build successfully on the
following systems (by myself and others):

If your system is not reported above, simply try to build the etsh
source code and see if it works or not.  In either case, please report
the results to the developer if possible; the resulting "config.h"
file and the compiler name/version is most helpful.  Please report
the results from running 'make check' too if possible.  It is very
helpful, as it gives a more complete picture about how well your
system is supported.

Please send etsh bug reports to <bugs (at) etsh (dot) nl>.  Before
reporting a bug, please try to reproduce it with the latest version
of the code.  With bug reports, please try to ensure that enough
information to reproduce the problem is enclosed.  Also, if a known
fix for it exists, then please include that as well.

If you have any comments or questions about this software, I encourage
you to contact me via email.  Thanks & Enjoy!
