address@hidden {Scheme Variable} special-files-service-type
+This is the service that sets up ``special files'' such as
address@hidden/bin/sh}; an instance of it is part of @code{%base-services}.
+
+The value associated with @code{special-files-service-type} services
+must be a list of tuples where the first element is the ``special file''
+and the second element is its target.  By default it is:
+
address@hidden @file{/bin/sh}
address@hidden @file{sh}, in @file{/bin}
address@hidden
+`(("/bin/sh" ,(file-append @var{bash} "/bin/sh")))
address@hidden example
+
address@hidden @file{/usr/bin/env}
address@hidden @file{env}, in @file{/usr/bin}
+If you want to add, say, @code{/usr/bin/env} to your system, you can
+change it to:
+
address@hidden
+`(("/bin/sh" ,(file-append @var{bash} "/bin/sh"))
+  ("/usr/bin/env" ,(file-append @var{coreutils} "/bin/env")))
address@hidden example
+
+Since this is part of @code{%base-services}, you can use
address@hidden to customize the set of special files
+(@pxref{Service Reference, @code{modify-services}}).  But the simple way
+to add a special file is @i{via} the @code{extra-special-file} procedure
+(see below.)
address@hidden defvr
+
address@hidden {Scheme Procedure} extra-special-file @var{file} @var{target}
+Use @var{target} as the ``special file'' @var{file}.
+
+For example, adding the following lines to the @code{services} field of
+your operating system declaration leads to a @file{/usr/bin/env}
+symlink:
+
address@hidden
+(extra-special-file "/usr/bin/env"
+                    (file-append coreutils "/bin/env"))
address@hidden example
address@hidden deffn
+
 @deffn {Scheme Procedure} host-name-service @var{name}
 Return a service that sets the host name to @var{name}.
