globash

GLOBASH(1)							 GLOBAL Utilities							GLOBASH(1)

NAME

       globash - invoke a GLOBAL shell environment.

SYNOPSIS

       globash

DESCRIPTION

       globash	is  a bash shell enviroment that provides easy access to GLOBAL data about a project.  More information about its use is available
       in the global.info documentation, and from globash itself at any time with the ghelp command that is available from inside it.

OPTIONS

       There are no options.  Or blue pills.  Just a simple shortcut to a bigger shell game.

FILES

       /etc/globash.rc - where all the real machinery lives.

BUGS

       As a wrapper globash gets to inherit bugs from other software too.  But its hardly big enough to have many on its own.

SEE ALSO

       gtags(1), global(1), htmake(1), htags(1),
       and the global info documentation.

AUTHOR

       Ron Lee <ron@debian.org>, wrote this manpage, added the globash wrapper, and made a few minor tweaks to the globash.rc file which does  all
       the real work and was written by Shigio Yamaguchi.
