+.SH NAME
+gets \- get a string from standard input
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B gets
+[ default ]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B N.B.:
+This command was introduced for use in \fI.login\fR scripts when the facilities
+of the 
+.IR tset (1)
+command were not totally adequate in setting the terminal type.
+This is no longer true, and
+.I gets
+should no longer be needed.
+To boot, a construct ``$<'' is available in
+.IR csh (1)
+now which has the functionality of
+.IR gets:
+.IP
+\fBset a=$<\fR
+.br
+\fBif ($a == '') set a=default
+.LP
+replaces
+.IP
+\fBset a=`gets default`\fR
+.LP
+Users of
+.IR sh (1)
+should use its
+.I read
+command rather than
+.I gets.
+.PP
+.I Gets
+can be used with
+.IR csh (1)
+to read a string from the standard input.
+If a
+.I default
+is given it is used if just return is typed, or if an error occurs.
+The resultant string (either the default or as read from the standard
+input is written to the standard output.
+If no
+.I default
+is given and an error occurs,
+.I gets
+exits with exit status 1.
+.SH "SEE ALSO"
+csh (1)
+.SH BUGS
+.I Gets
+is obsolete.
