Why for these, and not for the rest of the shell syntax?
I missed one keyword "until" which I should add. But otherwise this patch covers all keywords defined in cli_hush.c.
It does not cover logical expression (&&, ||) and comparisons.
This does not make sense to me. Shell syntax is way more complex than you can explain here. In the end, you are just adding to the memory footprint for minimal (or no) advantage.
You could say the same for any online help. I do not understand why you consider these commands not worth a description while we provide online help for all other commands including "test", "echo", "help" and even "?".
Best regards

I'm against adding this.
Best regards,
