${BSE}/bin directory

The ${BSE}/bin directory contains the programs of the operating system that LN uses. Examples of these programs include:

  • The ASCII display server (ba), which is still used, for example, for job management on a UNIX system, but not on a Windows platform
  • The shared memory manager: shmmanager (UNIX) or shmserv (Windows)
  • The Virtual Machine (VM) (bshell)
  • Several database drivers
Note: On a Microsoft Windows operating system, the programs in the ${BSE}/bin directory have the .exe extension instead of the 6.2 extension.
