Rust-shell: what features you would you like to see in a shell ?

• rust-shell

  1 4 10.0 Rust

  unix-like shell writen in rust (by matan-h)

I have created a shell in rust, (you can download it from here), it has some nice features (such as fish-like autosuggestion and highlight). What features are important to you in a shell (posix-like logic already planned, like && and ||)?

• athame

  9 1,618 0.0 C

  Full vim for your shell (bash, zsh, gdb, python, etc)

vi-mode... perhaps https://github.com/ardagnir/athame ?? perhaps embedding neovim??? but at least the basic modal editing that readline provides.

• powerlevel10k

  291 42,871 8.8 Shell

  A Zsh theme

and the transient prompt feature that https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k provides (allowing a verbose ps1 to be erased before the command history is written, so history is just stdout and not littered with the ps1 from ever command).

• dust

  48 7,746 7.4 Rust

  A more intuitive version of du in rust

I don't understand what you mean by Graphics integration or graphical frontend. Do you have an example? Instead of du - I recommend dust. The data features - are basically the features of nushell, are you using it? Regarding the variables - excellent idea, I will implement this. What do you mean by menu creation? What syntax would you use for "skip next line"?

• nushell

  212 29,864 9.9 Rust

  A new type of shell
