Metashell is a smart, interactive, lightweight, and simple command-line interface that is easy for users to utilize.
Installing metashell is quite simple, and you can opt for the automatic or manual installation method. Configuring this software is easy, and you may want to edit '/etc/passwd' and add '/bin/msh' as your shell. When it comes to configuration, you need to edit '~/.msh_apps' to indicate what applications should be used as the default for each file type. The file uses the Ubuntu (Gnome) default applications, so if you're using CLI only or KDE, you'll need to customize the associations. In the same vein, you can also edit '~/.msh_aliases' for any command-aliases you'd like to use.
This release of metashell comes packed with new features that make it even better than before. Fixes to tilda (~) vs /home/ handling and a rewrote configuration editing engine that is now binary independent are a few of the standout additions. Additionally, you now have directory listing of file types (file name and wildcards), an auto-update feature, and a cleanup of error handling. With metashell's impressive functionality and improved features, it's undoubtedly one of the best command-line shells you can find out there.
