NAME
       bsh - BeanShell: A Java scripting environment (command-line version).

SYNOPSIS
       bsh [-classpath path] [file]

DESCRIPTION
       BeanShell  is  a  small,  embeddable,  Java source interpreter with object scripting language features, written in Java. BeanShell executes
       standard Java statements and expressions, in addition to obvious scripting commands and syntax. You  can  also  script  objects	as  simple
       method closures like those in Perl and JavaScript(tm).

       bsh starts the command-line version of BeanShell.

OPTIONS
       The  program  bsh  optionally  takes  a	-classpath option which sets the value of the CLASSPATH environment variable to the specified path
       before starting the BeanShell.  This option is mainly provided for compatibility with JDE (Java Development Environment for Emacs).

       In addition, a file to be executed may be given as argument to bsh.

SEE ALSO
       xbsh - the windowed version of BeanShell.

       More documentation on BeanShell can be found in /usr/share/doc/bsh-doc/ if the bsh-doc package is installed.
