.SH DESCRIPTION \*s is a cmdline/interactive client to interact with nwd servers. \* The general setup is that you give it remotehost either with the first cmdline argument or with the m command and then send some series of commands with the output printed to stdout. .LP \* Commands can either be specified on the command line or in an \fIinteractive\fP mode. .LP \* Commands are short (usually one letter) and take some set number of arguments that can be quoted and escaped (like shell). \* They are split up into two groups: local and remote. .TP \* Local commands are commands for the client itself whereas remote commands are commands sent to the nwd server. .TP \* As the commands may change the h command, which will print a list of commands generated from the actual commands it recognizes, is the most reliable source for available commands. .TP \* If no commands are given then the client starts in interactive mode.
