Sherpa is used in two ways:

* In batch mode via the command line.
* Interactively via the Sherpa Shell

To use batch mode, just call sherpa from the command line:
<pre>
sherpa package info tcllib
</pre>

To use interactive mode, call sherpa without any arguments, or explicitly with the "shell" command:

<pre>
sherpa
</pre>
OR
<pre>
sherpa shell
</pre>
