The Baby X FileSystem Shell

The Baby X FileSystem shell is a program for running a shell over FileSystem XML files. It's the most powerful way of editing FileStstem XML files there is, becuse when it is finished, it will be a little computer in its own right. And is is the jewel in the crown of the babcyxfs_ suite of programs.

Usage

            
            babyxfs_shell <filesystem.xml> <filename> [options]
           
            The program accepts a FileSystem XML file as an argument, and
            a path, and runs the shell over it.
           
           options:
                   -editor <editor program>
            
            Example:
               babysfxs_shell poems.xml
               
               babyxfs_shell poems.xml -editor vi
               
             This will run a shell and mount poems.xml.
             in the second case, the program "vi" is used to edit the
             files.
               
        

And you should get a BBX$ prompt, and you are in the shell, and everything you do now is Baby X.
