Finally, a command line shell for the 90s. fish is a smart and user-friendly command line shell for Linux, macOS, and the rest of the family. fish suggests commands as you type based on history and completions, just like a web browser. Watch out, Netscape Navigator 4.0! fish supports 24 bit true color, the state of the art in terminal technology. Behold the monospaced rainbow. fish is fully scriptable, and its syntax is simple, clean, and consistent. You'll never write esac again. For those lucky few with a graphical computer, you can set your colors and view functions, variables, and history all from a web page. Other shells support programmable completions, but only fish generates them automatically by parsing your installed man pages. fish will delight you with features like tab completions and syntax highlighting that just work, with nothing new to learn or configure.

Mainly this project aims at easing startup and use of XCSoar (see xcsoar.org) on Kobo Mini. But the scope of use should not be limited solely to XCSoar. The Launcher should be small in code size, reuse most of the original libraries, provide flexible configuration to any application that might be ported to the Kobo Mini. It supports customizable fonts, toolbox-pages, buttons (also graphical), labels, autostart and sleep timers.

This project is implemented entirely in C++ without external dependencies. Windows Native Unix Shell (wnus prompt) (pronounced Wenus) brings the power and familiarity of bash sh ash commands and common terminal utilities to native Windows, with full NTFS support and Windows API integration. . It contains 342 fully implemented commands built-in , encompassing file managements operation and so much more. It has a comprehensive help system. This doesn't require WSL to work, or any other outside compatibility layer. Just download and manage files like you would in bash. It requires git, gcc, g++, and docker exes in path if you wish to use them. otherwise you do not need them for wnus to run. Windows 10 or Windows 11 highly recommended. Screenshot are of older version the app still looks the same, Now sh has access to all built-in commands from subshell.
