+This directory contains a shell user extension
+primary features:
+
+ + create a user shell terminal task.
+
+This code has not been extensively tested. It is provided as a tool
+for RTEMS users to open more shell terminal.
+Suggestions and comments are appreciated.
+
+NOTES:
+
+1. printf() & getchar() works but you can't use
+ 0,1,2 like fildes. You need to use fileno(stdin),fileno(stdout),...
+
+2. You only need a termios dev to start a new session, add your new commands
+ and enjoy it.
+
+
+
+FUTURE:
+
+1. Adding new commands in cmds.c to give file manegement to shell.
+
+2. Create a telnetd daemon. (pseudo-terminal needed)
