Re: A82: Multiple shells


yes, one shell would be great, but more like a central shell.  make it
exectute an "explorer" of sorts.  like usgard, and everyone can customize
the way it looks.

the problem is that there's a bunch of shit shells, and that people
developed for them.  PhatOS is a waste, along with MShell, OS_7, OS85,
and CSHELL. at the time they were good (i hate PhatOS, mostly because of
the name)... anyway, the only good shells are Rigel (relocation) ZShell
(vast amount of progs, small, still developed for) and Usgard (isrs,
shell customizing, many useful functions)

now, if ash could include all that :)
