Overview

This project is a simple shell implemented in Go that I designed to learn and improve on the language as well as to understand on a low level as to how a shell works.

Features

• Execute basic shell commands
• Script execution with .sh files
• Lightweight and fast

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/KingrogKDR/my-shell-go.git

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd absh

3. Build the project:

   Since the file is built as the shell-script executes, allow executable permissions (if required).

   chmod +x absh.sh

Usage

1. Run the shell-script to build and start the shell:

   update: shell.sh -> absh.sh

   ./absh.sh

2. Execute commands: You can type and execute your commands in the shell as you would in any other shell environment.

   Missing features

   • Variable Interpolation
   • Piping
   • Job Control
   • History
   • Autocompletion
