used so often that it's worth keeping it as a builtin. Now that all the printf invocations from within the system startup scripts, we can safely remove it. Urged by: sheldonh :) No MFC is planned so far because it may break compatibility and violate POLA.

|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
Shell builtin commands are commands that can be executed within the
|
|
running shell's process.
|
|
Note that, in the case of
|
|
.Xr csh 1
|
|
builtin commands, the command is executed in a subshell if it occurs as
|
|
any component of a pipeline except the last.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If a command specified to the shell contains a slash
|
|
.Dq \&/ ,
|
|
the shell will not execute a builtin command, even if the last component
|
|
of the specified command matches the name of a builtin command.
|
|
Thus, while specifying
|
|
.Dq Ic echo
|
|
causes a builtin command to be executed under shells that support the
|
|
builtin echo command,
|
|
specifying
|
|
.Dq Pa /bin/echo
|
|
or
|
|
.Dq Pa ./echo
|
|
does not.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
While some builtin commands may exist in more than one shell, their
|
|
operation may be different under each shell which supports them.
|
|
Below is a table which lists shell builtin commands, the standard shells
|
|
that support them and whether they exist as standalone utilities.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Only builtin commands for the
|
|
.Xr csh 1
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr sh 1
|
|
shells are listed here.
|
|
Consult the appropriate manual page for
|
|
details on the operation of any given builtin command under those shells.
|
|
Users of other shells will need to consult the documentation supplied
|
|
with the other shells.
