ABSTRACT
- The OSSP Run-Command Processor is a Duck.
+ OSSP rc is a generic run-command processor. Its primary function is to
+ assemble a temporary script from excerpts of one or more run-commmand
+ files which are built out of text snippets grouped into sections.
+ The user specifies the desired parts to use and also controls the
+ order of assembly. The program is not tied to a particular syntax for
+ neither the run-command section tags nor the contained scripts. By
+ default, the assembled script is executed by a specified interpreter
+ (usually a shell), but it can also be written into a temporary file
+ for evaluation inside a calling shell, or even just printed to stdout
+ for further processing.
