Small, fast shell with CFN and review.
.description
ZShell is a small (31K), fast and powerful Shell with many (65)
builtin commands. So it replaces most of the commands in the C:
directory (like LIST, COPY etc.) what effects in saving disk space
and reducing disk accesses. There is no way around ZShell for
those who do not have a harddisk or still have Kickstart 1.2/1.3 .
Some of the features:
* Freeware, no payment required !
* Usage is similar (or better) to the standard AmigaDOS shell.
* Supports the standard housekeeping commands which are builtin,
so no disk access is necessary.
eg. list, dir, cd, assign, delete, copy, move, path, info, type
* A total of 65 builtin commands.
* About 31K small (pure assembler code, source included).
* Starting from Workbench (!) or CLI. No installation needed.
* File name completion by simply pressing TAB; shows all matches.
* Review buffer to see again what scrolled out of the window.
* Some commands and debugging features for programmers.
* Online Help function and AmigaGuide documentation with examples.
* Command line editing better than OS2.0/3.0 Shell.
* Support of OS2.0+ and OS3.0+ specific features.
* Wild cards and recursive processing.
* Real RUN and NEWCLI command that reenters ZShell quickly.
* DIR and LIST both sort (by default) and show filesizes.
* Application-Window/-Icon
* Can open window on own screen
* 100% script compatibility
* Can create and show Hard- and Softlinks.
