12.1 GShell<br />

GShell is a command-line processing environment that can be used for the execution of<br />

Community Edition commands. It is an extensible environment and includes support for<br />

editing, command history, and tab completion.<br />

A number of Community Edition administrative commands have been implemented using<br />

GShell such as server start/stop, application deploy/undeploy and some other features.<br />

To start GShell, go to \bin and type the command gsh.bat on Windows<br />

or gsh.sh on Linux. You will see the initialization of GShell as shown in Listing 12.1<br />
