    Project mention: Beginner, intermediate, and advanced c programming projects | /r/C_Programming | 2023-12-09

    You can do something like this, but way less polished and stick to one platform: https://github.com/tsherif/space-shooter.c/tree/master

  • yori

    Yori is a CMD replacement shell that supports backquotes, job control, and improves tab completion, file matching, aliases, command history, and more.

    Project mention: I3wm Inspired Wm for Windows | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-09-14

    cmd.exe is largely still concerned with starting processes and hooking them together in much the same vein as Bourne shell, so I tend to use it for that.

    (I actually use Yori[0], but it's pretty much to tcsh what cmd.exe is to csh.)

    PowerShell leaned a little too hard into the structured data to be useful for me as a command shell. It's a pretty decent competitor to the Python REPL though.
