XSH2 acts as a command interpreter. Individual commands must be separated with a semicolon. In the interactive shell, backslash may be used at the end of a line to indicate that a command continues on the next line. Output redirection can be used to pipe output of some XSH command to some external program, or to capture the output to a variable. See Command output redirection for more info.
