RE: One Command -- Four Types

[johnjulian1@netscape.net]

The differences are built into the program. The program will check the name it was started as then behave accordingly.

It is done with scripts too. Something like:

if [ $( basename $0 ) = onename ]
then something
elsif [ $( basename $0 ) = othername ]
then otherthing
fi
