(defcustom eshell-explicit-command-char ?*
"*If this char occurs before a command name, call it externally.
That is, although vi may be an alias, *vi will always call the
! external version. UNIX users may prefer this variable to be \\."
:type 'character
:group 'eshell-ext)
When it says "UNIX users", who does that mean?
Does it mean users of Solaris and BSD as opposed to GNU/Linux?
Why would they be different?
Or does it intnded to mean users of GNU/Linux, Solaris, and BSD as
opposed to Windows? Whatever's best for GNU/Linux should be the
default.
