Summary: Proof of concept for a ispman CLI wrapper with help suport

Initial Comment:
Hi,
I made the following bash script:

---------
# cat /usr/sbin/ispman
#!/bin/sh

if [ "$1" = "help" ] && [ -n "$2" ]; then
        perldoc /usr/share/ispman/bin/$2
        exit 0
fi

if [ -z "$@" ] || [ "help" = "$1" ]; then
        echo The following commands exists:
        ls -1 /usr/share/ispman/bin/ | egrep -o "[^\.]*$"
        exit 0
fi

/usr/share/ispman/bin/ispman.$@
-------

and put the into $PATH (in my case /usr/sbin/....).

Usage:
# ispman dnsshow ...
will simply execute ispman.dnsshow

# ispman help ispman.dnsshow
will do a perldoc on ispman.dnsshow

# ispman help
shows a list of all available ispman.* commands

Rgds,
Andreas
