DESCRIPTION
The shells file contains a list of the shells on the system. For each shell a single line should be present, consisting of the shell's
path, relative to root.
A hash mark (``#'') indicates the beginning of a comment; subsequent characters up to the end of the line are not interpreted by the rou-
tines which search the file. Blank lines are also ignored.
