A package was submitted to savannah.gnu.org.
This mail was sent to address@hidden, address@hidden


Martin Richard Sanders <address@hidden> described the package as follows:
License: gpl
Other License: 
Package: Secure Login V1.0
System name: savanah
This package wants to apply for inclusion in the GNU project

Description:
It is a UNIX/Linux shell. It is based on bash, but it is easier to use. For 
example; instead of typing rlogin -l <username> <server> - you would simply 
type in rlogin and then you will be asked for the variables. The shell is also 
secure, in that it uses a key that must be entered everytime you run a command. 
So it someone did hack into your account, they will not be able to run any 
commands without the key. At the moment they key is stored in the source code.

At the moment I have not made it available. However, you can use a shell that i 
also wrote that is similar to it by getting a shell account at 
www.publiclinux.net. This shell is called SanCat V1.0. I wrote it originally to 
only run on the Public Linux server, then decided to write a new version with 
extra features and make it available to the public.

The shell provides a prompt and waits to input. Any input is then checked using 
IF statements. If the command is valid then it askes for input for any 
variables (if any are needed) and then makes a system call to run the command.

I will soon be setting up my own shell provider with the IP and WWW address 
zion.ath.cx which will be using Secure Login V1.0.

Other Software Required:
The entire package is written in Perl so requires at least perl V5.

Other Comments:
I will be providing free support to uses of Secure Login V1.0 through email at 
address@hidden
