<strong>Synopsis</strong>

|
|
|
<p>If <em>name</em> refers to a function, <strong>qsh</strong> runs
|
|
the function in the current environment. Otherwise, <strong>
|
|
qsh</strong> uses the search path specified by the <strong>
|
|
PATH</strong> variable to find <em>name</em>. If <em>name</em> is
|
|
found, <strong>qsh</strong> reads the contents of the file and runs
|
|
those commands in the current environment.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>If specified, the <em>arguments</em> replace the positional
|
|
parameters while <em>name</em> is running. Otherwise the positional
|
|
parameters are unchanged.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><strong>Exit Status</strong></p>
