Murex is a shell, like bash / zsh / fish / etc however Murex supports improved

features and an enhanced UX.



A non-exhaustive list features would include:



* Support for **additional type information in pipelines**, which can be used

  for complex data formats like JSON or tables. Meaning all of your existing

  UNIX tools to work more intelligently and without any additional configuration.



* **Usability improvements** such as in-line spell checking, context sensitive

  hint text that details a commands behavior before you hit return, and

  auto-parsing man pages for auto-completions on commands that don't have auto-

  completions already defined.

  

* **Smarter handling of errors** and **debugging tools**. For example try/catch

  blocks, line numbers included in error messages, stdout highlighted in red

  and script testing and debugging frameworks baked into the language itself.



## Language Guides



* Read the [language tour](/docs/tour.md) to get started.



* The [Rosetta Stone](/docs/user-guide/rosetta-stone.md) is a

great cheatsheet for those wishing to skip the tutorials and jump straight in.

This guide includes comparisons with Bash.



* The [Interactive Shell](/docs/user-guide/interactive-shell.md)

guide walks you through using Murex as a command line as opposed to a scripting

language.

## Compatibility Commitment



Murex is committed to backwards compatibility. While we do want to continue to

grow and improve the shell, this will not come at the expense of long term

usability. [Read more](compatibility.md)
