|
|

This builtin command is used to create a new function. A Function is a
|
|
list of commands that will be executed when the name of the function
|
|
is entered. The function
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
function hi
|
|
echo hello
|
|
end
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
will write <tt>hello</tt> whenever the user enters \c hi.
|
|
|
|
If the user enters any additional arguments after the function, they
|
|
are inserted into the environment variable <a href="index.html#variables-arrays">array</a> argv.
|
|
|
|
