TMOUT
contains the number of seconds before user input times out. If user input has not
been received within this length of time, the shell terminates.

shedit(3)).
FILES
sh uses the following files:

default history storage file.
.profile
profile for login shell.
/etc/profile
system-wide profile for login shells.
/etc/suid_profile
Profile used under the privileged option and when effective and real uids are differ-
ent
/tmp/sh∗
Temporary files for here documents, command substitution, history re-execution, etc.
The default directory /tmp can be overridden by setting the shell variable
TMPDIR
to the name of some other directory. See environ(3).
DIAGNOSTICS
Possible exit status values are:
0 Successful completion.
1 An error occurred.
Otherwise, the exit status of the shell defaults to the exit status of the last command executed
by the shell. This default may be overridden by explicit use of the exit or return com-
mands. The exit status of a pipeline is the exit status of the last command in the pipeline.
Most diagnostics are self explanatory. See separate man pages for diagnostics from built-in
commands.
Messages

Cause: You attempted to use <(command) or >(command) which are not implemented
in this version of the shell.
