    <title>Description</title>
    
    <p>
    <product>axi</product> invokes the afnix command line
    interpreter. Without arguments, the interpreter is invoked
    interactively. With one or several arguments, the first argument
    is taken as the file to execute. The rest of the command line is
    the arguments for the file being executed. With the help of the
    file resolver, a file does not have to have the <extn>.als</extn>
    or <extn>.axc</extn> extensions.
