A light implementation of a shell written in C.
Since its purpose is demonstration (not feature completeness or even fitness for casual use), it has many limitations, including:
- Commands must be on a single line;
- Arguments must be separated by a whitespace;
- No quoting arguments or escaping whitespace;
- Non piping or redirection;
- Only builtins are:
cd,help,exit.
You can either build with make or download the latest artifact in the actions.
If you downloaded the artifact you first need to extract the lsh file from the zip, then you can just run it (make sure it's executable).
./lsh
