## Compared to PASE for i

According to IBM, QSHELL is a “UNIX-like” interface built over IBM i. The commands issueed by the user point to programs in a “Qshell” library. To use Qshell, key STRQSH or QSH on an command line, or pass a command string to the QSH command, or use UNIXCMD, an open-source utility created by Scott Klement which allows the execution of QShell commands through an RPG special file.[1]

IBM Portable Application Solutions Environment for i (PASE for i) enables port of IBM AIX applications to the IBM i platform. To use PASE, CALL QP2TERM.
