<para>
|
|
The <command>sg</command> command works similar to
|
|
<command>newgrp</command> but accepts a command. The command will be
|
|
executed with the <filename>/bin/sh</filename> shell. With most shells
|
|
you may run <command>sg</command> from, you need to enclose multi-word
|
|
commands in quotes. Another difference between
|
|
<command>newgrp</command> and <command>sg</command> is that some
|
|
shells treat <command>newgrp</command> specially, replacing themselves
|
|
with a new instance of a shell that <command>newgrp</command> creates.
|
|
This doesn't happen with <command>sg</command>, so upon exit from a
|
|
<command>sg</command> command you are returned to your previous group
|
|
ID.
