Your observations are valid criticisms of the RTEMS shell implementation. I however think the shell needs some structural work but I have not done an in depth review to know what. As an example `rtems_shell_cmd_tt` has `alias` yet there is also `rtems_shell_alias_t` that is used (see the `cd` command). I have never seen the `alias` field used. If we want to make this a real shell with variables and even simple logic I think we need a rethink.
