A mode switching tool for controlling multiple-device USB gear
USB_ModeSwitch is (surprise!) a mode switching tool for controlling 'multi-mode' USB devices. Many USB devices (primarily high-speed WAN modems) have their M$ Windoze drivers onboard; when plugged in for the first time they act like a flash storage and start installing the driver from there. After installation (and on every consecutive plugging) the driver switches the mode internally, the storage device vanishes (in most cases), and a new device (like an USB modem) shows up. Modem maker "Option" called that feature "ZeroCD (TM)" since it eliminates the need for shipping a separate driver carrier.

Bash is the GNU Project's shell. Bash is the Bourne Again SHell. Bash is an sh-compatible shell that incorporates useful features from the Korn shell (ksh) and C shell (csh). It is intended to conform to the IEEE POSIX P1003.2/ISO 9945.2 Shell and Tools standard. It offers functional improvements over sh for both programming and interactive use. In addition, most sh scripts can be run by Bash without modification.
