+Flash is an attempt to create a secure menu-driver shell for UNIX-derived OSes,
+while providing user-friendliness and easy configurability. An ideal situation
+requiring the use of flash would be a student-run telnet server which needs to:
+
+a) shelter the users from some of the nastinesses of UNIX
+b) shelter the system from nasty users
+c) provide an easy way to launch applications
+d) support multitasking/job control as elegantly as possible
+e) support easy-to-get-right configuration by administrators
