DESCRIPTION

     C-Shell is a replacement for the AmigaDOS command line interface.
     Many builtin Unix-like commands, very fast script language, file-
     name completion, command-name completion, comfortable command line
     editing, pattern matching, AUX: mode, object oriented file classes,
     abbreviation of internal and external commands.  Supports multiple
     users.

     C-Shell is easy to install and to use.  Online help for all
     commands, functions and various subjects.  ARP-free!

NEW FEATURES

     Changes since version 5.48 (summary):
      - Warns if an executed program changed the priority of the
         current task or the signal state shows unreleased signals.
      - Fast successive calls to built-in function rnd(0) more accurate,
         seed is more "random" now.
      - Built-in function rnd, when called with seed=0 to build seed
         value from current time-stamp, now always builds unique seed
         value on every call.
      - New built-in function: mktemp. Returns a unique temporary file
         name of form T:tmpXXXXXXXX, or just tmpXXXXXXXX if T: does not
         exist. [thanks to Gary Duncan for source code]
      - Built-in command now handles binary files properly, so it's
         possible to use "cat file1 file2 >file3" to join files like
         under UNIX.  But note, that the built-in command "join" is
         much more faster.
      - Some minor enhancements and bug fixes.

     Changes since version 5.42 (summary):
      - Redirected output to a file can now be examined by other programs
         while Cshell is still filling up the file. (files for redirection
         are now opened "shared" instead of "exclusivly")
      - Enhanced pipe functionality. Made "echo mem | csh" work again.
      - Built-in command "copy" now has (optional) new output format which
         prints full path of files being copied. (just try option "-x")
      - Built-in commands "chown" and "chgrp" now accept also user and group
         names (as well as numerical IDs). Does only work with "MultiUser".
      - Built-in command "window" resizes/moves window much more faster now.
      - Built-in command "version" now behaves more like Commodore's
         command "version".

     of changes and new features.
