Wizard Shell

This is a passion project to learn how POSIX shells work. This is my first real project at least that I plan to finish (let's see how that goes). The objective is to eventually get this to be daily driveable and fully POSIX compliant.

Build

zig build -Doptimize=ReleaseFast -Dstrip

Supports:

• Quoting ("wizard's spellbook", wizard\'s academy) [backticks not supported yet]
• autocomplete (absolute and relative)
• pipes
• >, 1>, 2>, and the >> equivalents
• home directory paths (~)
• builtins supported (so far): echo, cd, exit, pwd, type
• backspace and delete
• left and right arrow key scrolling
• default? set enviornment variables ($TERM)

TODO/wish list:

• echo enviornment variables
• autocomplete on filepaths (done!) [very buggy!]
• all POSIX operators (&>, &<, <, <<, >&, &&, &, ||, ;, etc.)
• all POSIX builtins (export, alias, shopt, etc.)
• shell history
• bang commands
• shell scripts
• rc file
• reverse search on shell history (better than bash)
• vi mode
• base16 and 256 custom color prompts
