# lsh
Lisp Shell

This is a cross-platform shell developed in Racket. To use, either compile to binary using Racket 6.11 or newer, or run:

Windows:
"C:\Program Files\Racket\racket.exe" -f "lsh.rkt" -e "(require 'lsh)" -i

Unix:
racket -f "lsh.rkt" -e "(require 'lsh)" -i

Available commands:

help ; displays this message
cd ; displays the current working directory or change it
cd/ ; same as (cd "/") - goes back to filesystem root
pwd ; print the current directory's path
dir ; list the current directory's file list or the specified path
ls ; prints the current folder's file list
mkdir ; makes a folder
run ; run a program from the current directory, optionally takes parameters
run# ; run a program directly using its path
racket ; edit a file using DrRacket
edit ; edit a file using notepad
edit-me ; edit lsh source file using DrRacket
url ; browse to an url
google ; google an url
cp ; copy a file or folder
mkdir ; create a folder
touch ; create an empty file
find ; walk the current path
show ; pretty-prints a command result
rm ; delete a file
rmdir ; delete a folder
echo ; display something on the screen
search ; equivalent to Google's 'I'm feeling lucky'

LSH evaluates Scheme and Racket forms from the command line. Remember to (display ) forms if you need to output results to the screen.
This is still very Alpha, but I use it all the time, so you might as well have it too. I use it in Windows, but it should work out of the box on Linux, BSD and MacOS - and if not, would require minor changes.
