Up: What is Eshell?

### 1.1 Contributors to Eshell

Contributions to Eshell are welcome. I have limited time to work on this project, but I will gladly add any code you contribute to me to this package.

The following persons have made contributions to Eshell.

- Eli Zaretskii made it possible for Eshell to run without requiring asynchronous subprocess support. This is important for MS-DOS, which does not have such support.
- Miles Bader contributed many fixes during the port to Emacs 21.
- Stefan Monnier fixed the things which bothered him, which of course made things better for all.
- Gerd Moellmann also helped to contribute bug fixes during the initial integration with Emacs 21.
- Alex Schroeder contributed code for interactively querying the user before overwriting files.
- Sudish Joseph helped with some XEmacs compatibility issues.

Apart from these, a lot of people have sent suggestions, ideas, requests, bug reports and encouragement. Thanks a lot! Without you there would be no new releases of Eshell.
