shl
shl(1) General Commands Manual shl(1)NAME
shl - shell layer manager
SYNOPSIS DESCRIPTION
provides a means for interacting with more than one shell from a single terminal by using shell layers. A layer is a shell that is bound
to a virtual device. The virtual device can be manipulated like an actual terminal by using and (see stty(1) and ioctl(2)). Each layer
has its own process group ID. The user controls these layers by using the commands described below.
The current layer is the layer that can receive input from the keyboard. Other layers attempting to read from the keyboard are blocked.
Output from multiple layers is multiplexed onto the terminal. To block the output of a layer when it is not current, the option can be set
within the layer.
The character (set to if NUL) is used to switch control to from a layer. has its own prompt, to distinguish it from a layer.
Definitions
A is a sequence of characters delimited by a space, tab, or new-line character. Only the first eight characters are significant. When
provided as an argument to the or commands, name cannot be of the form n or where n is a decimal number.
Commands
The following commands can be issued from the prompt level. Any unique prefix is accepted.
Create a layer called
name and make it the current layer. If no argument is given, a layer is created with a name of the form where n is the num-
ber of the next available slot in an internal table. Future references to this layer can be made with or without the paren-
theses. If name is followed by a command, that command is executed in the layer instead of a shell. If is the first argu-
ment, a ``login shell'' is created in the layer. The shell prompt variable is set to the name of the layer followed by a
space.
Rename the layer
oldname, calling it newname. If oldname is not specified, the current layer name is changed.
Invoke a sub-shell and execute
command. If no command is given, a shell is executed according to the environment variable.
For each name, block the output of the corresponding layer when it is not the current layer. This is equivalent to setting the
option within the layer.
For each name, delete the corresponding layer. All processes in the process group of the layer are sent the signal (see signal(5)).
Print the syntax of the
commands.
For each name, list the layer name and its process group. The option produces a ps(1)-like listing. If no arguments are given,
information is presented for all existing layers.
Change the status of the layer referred to by
name to that of current layer. If no argument is given, the last existing current layer is changed.
Change the status of the previous current layer
to that of current layer.
For each name, do not block the output of the corresponding layer when it is not the current layer. This is equivalent to setting
the option within the layer.
Exit All layers are sent the signal.
name Change the status of the layer referred to by name to that of current layer. Any unique prefix is accepted.
WARNINGS
Commands
The behavior of the and commands is not guaranteed when the SHELL environment variable is set to (for csh(1)) or (for ksh(1)), or when the
shell saves and restores the tty state (defined in termio(7)) before and after each command is invoked interactively from that shell. For
both and the or options of can be used from within the layer to block or unblock the output of that layer.
