Caml-Shcaml is an Ocaml library for Unix shell programming.
Unix shells provide easy access to Unix functionality such as pipes, signals, file descriptor manipulation, and the file system. Shcaml hopes to excel at these same tasks.
Shcaml can be installed with opam:
opam install shcaml
If you don't use opam consult the opam file for build
instructions.
You can find Shcaml's documentation (including a tutorial) online at
http://www.ccs.neu.edu/~tov/code/shcaml/doc/ or build a local copy with make docs.
