Subject: Second try: mj_shell manpage

I tried to send a notice of the mj_shell manpage I wrote, but perhaps I
tripped a length filter by including the file itself.  So:

I wrote documentation for mj_shell (the shell interface for Majordomo 2).
It's embedded within the script and built at installation time.  I've
placed a text copy at
<URL:ftp://ftp.hpc.uh.edu/pub/majordomo/mj_shell.man>.

It describes all of the command-line arguments and the basics of specifying
commands.  Note that the section on executing multiple commands also
describes the syntax for emailed commands, since the parser is the same.
The exception is that in email, external argument lists refer to MIME
attachments and not files specified on the command line.

I suspect that this is the first view that many will get of the extended
syntax, including here and external argument lists and the specification of
command modes.  Comments are appreciated.

I hope to have a snapshot out with all of this included in the next day or
so.
