In particular, it was created -in order to cope with the problem of missing shared libraries or important -executables. - -Sash can execute external programs, as in any shell. There are no -restrictions on these commands, as the standard shell is used to execute -them if there are any non-wildcard meta-characters in the command. -More importantly, however, is that many of the standard system commands -are built-in to sash. - -This script applies the 'sash-plus-patches' command collection, which -adds the following commands: 'chroot' 'pivot_root' and 'losetup'. - -These functions actually provide interfaces to the respective Linux system -calls. They are specificly useful when sash is used as a shell in "initial -ramdisk" (initrd) environments. - -In addition, a simple shell variable expansion support has been added, e.g. -the variable "$(VAR)" is replaced by the content of the variable "VAR". -- cgit v1.2.3
