Description-en: Assorted shell commands for using Robot OS with bash
This package is part of Robot OS (ROS). The rosbash package contains
some useful bash functions and adds tab-completion to a large number
of the basic ros utilities. The package includes limited support for
zsh and tcsh by way of sourcing the roszsh or rostcsh files
respectively. It doesn't provide documentation on these shells,
though much of the functionality is similar to the bash shell
extensions.
