cash

Unread post by jankiel » Fri Mar 24, 2017 3:01 pm

https://github.com/dthree/cash

unix coreutils rewritten in javascript (Ecmascript 6, to be exact) :D I post it rather as fun-fact or curiosity, I don't think it will be usable amongst BBQers, who already have this functionality in shell (though maybe it will be good for those who need to work on Windows, and cannot use/don't like Cygwin)
because of that trend, javascript rush, i am still awaiting for OS kernel written in js :D
if already have nodejs/npm installed in system, installation is easy as funk,

Code: Select all

npm install -g cash

crazy, as you say not much use, but could this be dumped into a webpage? thats all i know js from...
I don't plan on implementing it though (although a browser with a working shell would be cool)

Hi wux, You mean to use it like shell-in-a-box? A term inside a page? I don't know, I haven't used that, but You're right, it would be nice use case of Cash.. If there is no option like that, it will be a nice idea for yet another open-source project ;) (unfortunately, i am not into js programming; also afaik shell-in-a-box is not developed for a long time..)
