4 A simple way to turn any command into a shell with arrow key/history support (if compiled with libreadline). Forked from [taskshell](https://github.com/GothenburgBitFactory/taskshell).
11 Binaries can be downloaded from [here](https://builds.sr.ht/~armaan/gen-shell/commits/.build.yml). NB: these binaries are compiled against libreadline version 8
15 - cmake (2.8 or higher)
17 - g++ (sometimes packaged as gcc-c++ or gcc-g++)
18 - libreadline development files (7 or 8 is fine, 5 is untested) (optional, but highly recommended)
