Does either environment support the man pages? I did some experimenting with QShell and found it didn't have much in the way of command help. This was some time ago, so things may have changed. A friend, better versed in the Unix way, steered me towards the man (manual) command. This I quickly learned was one of the standard Unix commands for learning the system. Unfortunately, QShell didn't have this. I realize that there are alternatives. However, it's better I find to have the help system right there, in the same environment where you work. Also, there is a lot of variation in the Unix inspired command sets. I frequently bumped in to the problem of finding an answer, but it wouldn't work in the environment I was in.

Brian, I agree, the man (manual) command would be handy. To my knowledge, though, it's not available in Qshell or PASE. Alan
