+The Heirloom Bourne Shell is a portable variant of the traditional Unix
+shell. It has been derived from OpenSolaris code and thus implements the
+SVR4/SVID3 level of the shell.
+
+The Bourne shell is suitable for
+
+ * script portability testing
+ * processing of legacy scripts
+ * general script processing
+ * interactive use
+
+Note that this SlackBuild installs the shell as /usr/bin/hsh rather than
+/usr/5bin/sh.
