.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.
