MUREX_EXE (path)

Absolute path to running shell

Description

MUREX_EXE is very similar to the $SHELL environmental variable in that it holds the full path to the running shell. The reason for defining a reserved variable is so that the shell path cannot be overridden.

This is a reserved variable so it cannot be changed.
