  I've note many builtin functions for csh(1) and sh(1) =

  have no apropos(1) or whatis(1). =


  Especially annoying are 'limit' and 'unlimit'. =


  Require people to become experts in shell =

  scripting seems excessive. Remembering =

  all the builtins is dumb. That is what =

  I have a computer for... I don't want =

  to remember certain things. =


  What is the policy for 'builtin' shell functions? =
