Revision history for Shell
Additions:
**Shells** are commonly thought of as command-line interfaces (CLI). Commands can be typed in one at a time, or a [[Script script]] can be used to execute a string of commands. However, it can refer to a graphical shell provided by a graphical user interface (GUI). Shells are often used to invoke or "launch" another program; additionally they can have capabilities such as viewing the contents of directories. They are sometimes known as [[Console]]s or [[Terminal]]s

You will find those on university systems.
We had one program once, that required csh, so you can extract it from this archive:
