A simple utility for quickly starting nix-shell sessions

nix-start

A simple utility for starting nix-shell based on templates.

Example

Create the directory ~/.config/nix-start. Then define the file ~/.config/nix-start/binary.nix like so:

# Utilities for basic binary manipulation
with (import <nixpkgs> {});
mkShell {
    buildInputs = with pkgs; [
        binutils
        elfkickers # Tools for stripping binaries
        radare2 # UNIX-like reverse engineering framework
    ];
}

Now, if you run the command nix-start binary, it will load you into that environment.
