Phoenix Network Forums

Hi all, I'm known as "UberMensch", "Uber", "Mensch", and "UberN00b".

I signed up today because I want to a) Start running a multifunction Eggdrop bot in my channel, and b) because I want to learn more about this "shell" stuff.

I'm a regular in QuakeNet IRC (My channel cap is full ), the GarrysMod Facepunch forums, and several other smaller ones.

I can help with computer hardware, (some) software and English grammar/spelling!

Metallica, Iron Maiden, ZZ Top etc are my choice of listening material

O, lookie, a metallic fan. Welcome to Pheonix Network dude.
Shells are basically just accounts on a UNIX system. Of course, with limitations. But ya can't complain.
The real definition of a shell can be found here: http://whatis.techtarget.com/definition/0,,sid9_gci214637,00.html
Which defines the C Shell, but it's pretty much all the same.
Hope you enjoy yourself, Cheers. =]
[Spell check anyone?]
