This is a fork of [taskshell](https://github.com/GothenburgBitFactory/taskshell) with a highly reduce codebase. ## Usage -Just put the command that you want to repeat as the argument +Just put the command that you want to repeat after `gen-shell`, eg; `gen-shell ls`, or even something much more complex like `gen-shell "cd /home/armaa/Clone/words && /home/armaa/Clone/words/bin/words` This command was actually the inspiration for gen-shell. ## Installation ### Binaries -Binaries can be downloaded [from here](https://build.bhojwani.org/job/gen-shell/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/build/src/gen-shell). Note that these binaries are compiled against libreadline7, so if your system only has libreadline8, you can symlink 8 to 7 with `sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libreadline.so.8.0 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libreadline.so.7`. This isn't a great solution, but it gets the job done. +Binaries can be downloaded [from here](https://build.bhojwani.org/job/gen-shell/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/build/src/gen-shell).
