DESCRIPTION
     AXsh's main purpose is to let other users have access to your
     Amiga and still be sure that nothing inappropriate can happen.
     AXsh ensures this by allowing access only to directories that are
     defined accessible and only accepting commands and arguments that
     are defined legal.

     AXsh supports multiple lines, multiple users logged in
     simultaneously and 8 different user levels. User actions can be
     saved into a log file. Each user has his/her own home directory,
     and the used disk space can be/is restricted.

     AXsh can be used as a bulletin board system with or without
     UUCP or as a door program in a 'normal' BBS. It has its own mail,
     news and file transfer programs. However, AXsh is not restricted
     to remote access, it can be very well used as a local shell.

     The shell itself has command line editing, function key macros,
     history, aliases, variables and scripts. It also has filename and
     commandname completion assigned to the TAB key. VT100, Ansi and
     dumb terminal modes are currently supported.

     Many useful programs are included in the packet and any CLI-based
     programs can easily be added.

     AXsh systems can be connected together to form a network, so that
     mail and news are exchanged between systems. You can also use UUCP
     instead of the native AXsh net system or you can use another
     transport mechanism like Fidonet (TrapDoor) to transfer AXsh net
     packets. News and mail programs are configurable to fully interface
     with UUCP or CNews.

     If you have WB2.1, you can choose the used language from English,
     Finnish, Spanish, French, Danish, Swedish and German. New 2.0
     features are also used, but you can still use AXsh with ks1.3 if
     you have arp.library.
