The package makes it possible to execute Unix bash shell scripts from within LaTeX. The main application is in writing computer-science texts, in which you want to make sure the programs listed in the document are executed directly from the input. The package may use other Unix shells than bash, but does not work without modification in a Windows environment.

The package requires the -shell-escape flag when LaTeX is processing your document.
