ash
Description
The Almquist shell is a clone of Berkeley's Bourne shell. Ash
supports all of the standard sh shell commands and is considerably
smaller than bash. The ash shell lacks some features (for example,
command-line history), but needs a lot less memory.
This package contains a small, statically linked version of ash
that can be handy for system recovery or as a fail-safe interactive
shell for the superuser.
