inspec shell documentation - Fix #805 #925
Conversation
Note - this is documenting the shell as of #909. It only makes sense once that goes in. |
InSpec Shell Usage | ||
===================================================== | ||
|
||
The InSpec interactive shell is a pry based REPL that can be used to quickly run InSpec controls and tests without having to write it to a file. Its functionality is similar to ``chef shell`` - it provides a way to exercise the InSpec DSL, its resources, tests and plugins without having to create a profile or write a test file. |

Can we wrap/fill these lines to a set length? It'll makes diffs easier to read in the future and make it easier to edit in vim/emacs.

@stevendanna I wanted to do that initially but none of the other files did it. I didn't know the exact semantics of rst files - so I just went with what the others were doing.
