Open Source Unix Shell System Shells

zsh is a shell probably most similar to ksh, but with countless enhancements and differences.

The Heirloom Project provides standard Unix utilities.

Avoid switching between Clojure and bash scripts. Enjoy your parens on the command line. Leveraging GraalVM native-image and the Small Clojure Interpreter, babashka is a self-contained and instantly starting scripting environment. Babashka comes with scripting batteries included: tools.cli, cheshire, babashka.fs, babashka.process, java.time and many more libraries and classes. Babashka scripts work on linux, macOS and Windows. Besides the built-in libraries, babashka is able to load libraries from source, tapping into the world of already existing Clojure libraries. Babashka supports real JVM threads and like Clojure, supports futures and dynamic thread-locally bound vars. Babashka features a built-in task runner which covers the most popular use cases of make, just and npm scripts. Babashka can shell out to other CLI programs like you are used to in bash. It goes one step further and offers seamless integration with other binaries using the pod protocol.

A gdb-like debugger for bash

Minimal Linux Live is a tiny educational Linux distribution, which is designed to be built from scratch by using a collection of automated shell scripts. Minimal Linux Live offers a core environment with just the Linux kernel, GNU C library and Busybox userland utilities. Additional software can be included in the ISO image at build time by using a well-documented configuration file. Minimal Linux Live can be downloaded as a pre-built image, built from scratch or run in a web browser by using a JavaScript PC emulator.

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.

SoupToNuts is a repository of technical articles and example software covering Postfix, OpenSSH, C and C++, Live Linux CD, MySQL, SQLite, Berkeley DB, Bash and System Administration.

A script that lets you add the current Kubernetes context and namespace configured on kubectl to your Bash/Zsh prompt strings (i.e. the $PS1). The default prompt assumes you have the kubectl command-line utility installed. Official installation instructions and binaries are available. Blue was used for the default symbol to match the Kubernetes color as closely as possible. Red was chosen as the context name to stand out, and cyan for the namespace. 256 colors are available by specifying the numerical value as the variable argument. Due to the vast ways of customizing the shell, please try the prompt with a minimal configuration before submitting a bug report.

An excellent system-development distribution. Comes with kernel, libc, cc, and emacs. Also contains theTool, and rc. Roll-your-own distro, bring tarballs. Unpack a bootable sample fs, and then unpack libc and cc-tools, unpack c-compiler then use theTool to build Perl -> autoconf, etc., then g++ and gdb, linux-7. See the shell programs and filesystem in the 'Files' section. Be sure to post in the forum/discussion 'kconfig' because there are a few caveats to "boot and build". Thanks, Dru

A modular framework for implementing a CISCO-like CLI on a *NIX system. Arbitary command menus and actions can be defined using XML files. This software handles the user interaction, and forks the appropriate system commands to perform any actions.

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.

A simple shell, like Bash, written in Rust.

Debugger for Bash version 3(Bourne again shell). Plugin for Eclipse. Will only work with shell script editor ShellEd.

A set of functions for KSH and BASH in a sourceable file. Typical functions include calculating differences between dates, going forward or back any number of days. Works for dates AD only. Some issues will arise when today > 2099...

Dreamos is an operating system developed on Sega Dreamcast to be ported to an array of embedded devices. The goal of the project is to be able to run non-ported Unix programs on the Sega Dreamcast and other embedded devices with ease and POSIX compliance

pipestatus - source file for UNIX/POSIX shell that allows to obtain an exit status of every program in a pipe.

Bash Navigator eliminates the requirement that users must memorize long directory names, provides forward/back/next/previous navigation keys, and supports a rudimentary form of project management without reducing the flexibility of the BASH shell.

When it comes to use of Linux, its a champ on the server side but when it comes to the desktop, its hardly just 3% in the whole world when compared to other proprietary OS and what keeps people from using it and why has it not made its mark on the Desktops yet ? Though Linux has got its success to accomplish its most common tasks through GUI approach, it still demands the users to be logical and use of terminal to accomplish certain tasks that cannot be done as easily as on other proprietary OS. So, we decided to write this script that would accomplish most of your common tasks at a hit of keystrokes and you would not need to remember any commands to accomplish your task.

A tool to auto-compile & install Nginx+MySQL+PHP on Linux

ScriptEchoColor simplifies Linux terminal text colorizing, formatting and several steps of script coding.

Shell.NET is a set of console and winform applications written in C#. It features nearly 100 applications ranging from classical Unix applications like basename, cal, grep, tr, uniq, and wc, to some very unique tools like RunScript or TextTransform.

A simplistic object oriented extension to the unix shell. Woosh is to bash what Objective C is to C.

A short & sweet BASH script for rotating and archiving Apache log files. Easy to modify and use. Keywords: Log, Rotate, Apache, Archive, Backlog

The project includes Bash and Bourne Shell utility scripts. Manual pages accompany some of the scripts. The goal of the project is to provide at least 10,001 useful scripts. The official source repository is located at https://github.com/textbrowser.

Shell Script based installation utilities to facilitate the building, packaging and installation of custom Database applications, specifically database objects such as tables, stored procedures, data etc.
