I am familiar with the names GreyCat and geirha and lhunath and koalaman
because they have made unmissable contributions to shells and shell
scripting, supporting and documenting and educating shell users
for decades.

You can find some of their work by internet search on each of those
names: 'shell GreyCat' 'shell geirha' etc.

I searched 'shell rking' and found nothing.

Does anyone know who rking mentioned there is?
