As you know, Linux comes in a variety of flavors/brands/models, and each of those change over time, resulting in multiple versions being out in the world and possibly needing to host A-Shell. The material here is NOT intended to be a catalog of those models and versions, but rather a simple listing of the ways in which A-Shell has adapted to the ever-changing Linux environment. Whenever there is a relevant update to A-Shell made because of or in response to a new version of Linux, an update note will be posted here.
