>>           chmod mode file [...]

	chmod - Change mode of a file, chmod [+-][shmw]
		s - system file (hidden from normal directory searches)
		h - Hidden file (" ")
		m - backed-up
		w - Write allowed
	Preceding the above modes with a '+' adds the mode, a '-' removes it.

>>           drvprs [-q] drive

		Checks to see if a drive is present. -q supresses verbosity.
	For use in MSH script conditionals.

>>           inherit variable ...

		Allows a sub-shell to inherit a variable set in its parent
	shell.
>>           lc         (I use this instead of 'ls' in my PROFILE)

		An alias for ls -w in msh.

>>           mousehidden

		Returns the number of times the mouse has been hidden.  Under
	"GEM" the mouse must be "restored" as many times as it was hidden
	before it will reappear.

>>           mshversion

		prints the current version of msh.

	BTW, I don't use msh. I much prefer Gulam.  Gulam's aliasing facility
is, in my opinion, superior.  Plus, it has an emacs editor built in, and
command line editing.  Just my preference's.
