DESCRIPTION
entrcmd is a non-interactive command-line interface which allows a user to perform a series of neighboring and output operations, based upon an initial set of UIDs or a boolean expression which describes a set of UIDs. Alternatively, it can be used to display an alphabetically sorted list of terms near an initial term.
