22 ;;; Commentary:
24 ;; To force a command to invoked external, either provide an explicit
25 ;; pathname for the command argument, or prefix the command name with
26 ;; an asterix character. Example:
28 ;; grep ; make invoke `grep' Lisp function, or `eshell/grep'
29 ;; /bin/grep ; will definitely invoke /bin/grep
30 ;; *grep ; will also invoke /bin/grep
