ISP Information:
This most commonly refers to the various text-based user interface programs available for UNIX or Linux. The shell is the part of the OS that interacts with the user and accepts typed commands. Different shells have different functionality, so it is important to have the proper shell loaded or you may find yourself lost as things are displayed differently and familiar commands are not supported.
