<h1> The <tt>s6-expr</tt> program </h1>
<p>
s6-expr evaluates an expression and writes the result to stdout.
</p>
<h2> Interface </h2>
<pre>
s6-expr <em>expression...</em>
</pre>
<p>
s6-expr acts as the generic
<a href="https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/expr.html">expr</a> utility,
except that the <strong>:</strong> operator (pattern matching) is not supported.
</p>
<p>
s6-expr accepts an arbitrary number of arguments.
</p>
<h2> Posixness </h2>
<p>
s6-expr <strong>is not</strong> suitable as a Single Unix
<a href="https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/expr.html">expr</a>
program; however, if you are never using the pattern matching functionality, s6-expr
scrupulously follows the rest of the specification.
