-The above default behaviour can be affected by the options
-tt(IGNORE_NULLCMD) and tt(SH_NULLCMD).  tt(SH_NULLCMD) forces the Bourne
-shell behaviour when the parameter tt(NULLCMD) is not set (i.e. the
-implicit command used with the redirections is `tt(:)'), while
-tt(IGNORE_NULLCMD) is used to obtain the same behaviour as if tt(NULLCMD)
-was unset.
-
-The standard Bourne shell behaviour is obtained by setting the options
-tt(IGNORE_NULLCMD) and tt(SH_NULLCMD).  This is the default when zsh is
-emulating bf(sh) or bf(ksh).  The tt(csh) behaviour can be obtained by
-setting only tt(IGNORE_NULLCMD), which is the default when emulating
