shift -- Command Shift positional parameters shift Commands to the shell can be stored in a file, or script. Positional parameters pass command-line variables to a script. shift changes the values of positional parameters. The old parameter values $2, $3, ... become the new parameter values $1, $2 .... shift also reduces the value of $#, which gives the number of positional parameters, by one. The shell executes shift directly. See Also commands, ksh, sh
