First, it's cool that someone is trying to make a BASIC shell. What I was pointing to is that most same-era computers used BASIC as their shell.

- crististm 6y agoThe most non-sh shell I've seen in recent >10years is scsh which is a scheme shell. I don't know if anyone is working on a Basic shell today and you're right about your observation. As a programming language, Basic was more suited to be a shell than DOS was suited to be a programming language. :) that's probably why I avoided learning dos batch programming like mad.
