I wrote a front end for rsh and rcp. This script is for lazy people
who often copy files from one host to another with rcp(1)
and don't like typing long hostnames.

Which is the best category? net? misc?

from the manpage:
DESCRIPTION
     rshell is front end for rsh(1) and rcp(1).  Rshell read the host and
     username aliases from the configuration file $HOME/.rshellrc with the
     following syntax:

           alias   <hostname alias> <full hostname>

     or

           alias   <host,host2,...> <email@hostname>

EXAMPLES
     The following are examples of a typical usage of the rshell command:

           $ rshell foo

     which rshell expand to `rsh -l wosch mail.foobar.com'

           $ rcp foo:/etc/motd .

     which rcopy expand to `rcp wosch@mail.foobar.com:/etc/motd .'
