- Getting started with lisp
-
writing scripts in lisp
In CL, there is also https://github.com/ruricolist/cmd on top of uiop:run-program / launch-program to quickly run commands.
-
Running docker commands from Common Lisp REPLs
+1. To write quick shell commands, see also cmd: https://github.com/ruricolist/cmd
-
Portable Lisp Dialects with Solid UNIX and Systems Programming Support?
A nice library that makes running shell programs even easier than uiop:run-program: https://github.com/ruricolist/cmd

How to run external commands?
uiop:run/launch-program (sync/async): https://lispcookbook.github.io/cl-cookbook/os.html#running-external-programs and the handy cmd which builds on it: https://github.com/ruricolist/cmd
-
[Common Lisp] Best Libraries for Interfacing with UNIX-like Operating Systems?
Some ideas/reminders/pointers: do not miss uiop:run-process and launch-process to run (a)sync programs; see cmd for an easier to use equivalent; see file-object-finder for a high-level lib around files (it handles file permissions). clawk replaces AWK.

Guides on Learning to Use Lisp Instead of Shell Script?
To operate on files and directories, see UIOP and this new library: https://github.com/Ambrevar/fof (File Object Finder). You could start using the Lem editor and Lisp REPL, the Nyxt browser, this basic file manager (https://github.com/szos/CLFM), cmd to fire external commands (https://github.com/ruricolist/cmd).

A Lisp REPL as my main shell
There is https://github.com/ruricolist/cmd in particular which is very helpful.
I'm going to publish a few more libraries which should help with file manipulation (as I demoed it).
Stay tuned!

ruricolist/cmd - utility for running external programs.
As for cmd, I just cloned it into local-projects, so it's the development version. This seems to be the line where exo is called and I don't think it's defined anywhere: https://github.com/ruricolist/cmd/blob/master/cmd.lisp#L374

How do I launch Edwin48 on scsh?
If you don't know how to install scsh, you can clone it from GitHub and build it, but building depends on Scheme48. Do you have Scheme48 installed? To install it, you can download it from the Scheme48 website. Some operating systems let you install Scheme48 from the package repository (e.g. Debian based Linux systems such as Ubunut or Mint).

Ask HN: Why isn't Scheme Shell (scsh) developed anymore?
While looking for bash scripting alternatives, I found scsh (https://scsh.net/). There's a somewhat newer continuation on GH (https://github.com/scheme/scsh).
Does anyone know the story of scsh? Did no one use it? Guile seems to be the latest option for shell scripting with Scheme, but scsh looks quite nice.

SCSH
What are some alternatives?
When comparing cmd and scsh you can also consider the following projects:
CLFM - Common Lisp File Manager
linedit - Readline-style line-editor for Common Lisp.
xonsh - :shell: Python-powered, cross-platform, Unix-gazing shell.
lish - Lisp Shell
pipeline
clawk - CLAWK is an AWK implementation embedded into Common Lisp, by Michael Parker. This version contains some patches to make it compile again.
janet-sh - Shorthand shell like functions for janet.
