I definitely appreciate the idea of sane defaults, rather than forcing the user to set everything up properly from scratch. And your autosuggestions do look pretty swell. > Customizations (prompt, colors, etc) can be done with a web UI or a nice command line interface, and not arcane syntax (PS1=...) You ship a web server in the shell? Is it always running, or does the user have to do something to start it up? I kinda like setting variables, to be honest. But I'm old-fashioned. One thing I really wish y'all'd done was use more standard shell syntax. It's really painful working in an office where someone uses fish and lets fish-isms creep into shared command libraries.
