Therefore I cannot think of any configurations (assume we are talking shell wise?) that would now be unusable within metashell. If you have an example, please let me know, so we can address the issue, as well consider that a bug.</div> <br> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="PADDING-LEFT: 1ex; MARGIN: 0px 0px 0px 0.8ex; BORDER-LEFT: #ccc 1px solid">2 the new shell will almost certainly be missing some or many of the<br>features which you love</blockquote> <div> </div> <div>I'll agree with this one. I like Thunderbird over Evolution, for a number of reasons. When forced to use Evolution, I almost undoubtedly find a feature missing. I am sure you have plenty of applications that you are biased towards. And undoubtedly, you find features missing in all of the rest? Linux verse Windows? OSX verse Windows?</div> <div> </div> <div>But on the same token, metashell strives to contain the same feature of your tradition shells, while also offering the user-friendly features. And if there is something missing, we would love to hear about it, so that it can be considered for a new release, etc. However, if you still seem to be missing something, and obviously know your way around CLI, metashell may not be for you. Lets not forget the audience here.</div> <br> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="PADDING-LEFT: 1ex; MARGIN: 0px 0px 0px 0.8ex; BORDER-LEFT: #ccc 1px solid">3 the new shell has an unknown security/bug status</blockquote> <div> </div> <div>The shell is currently in beta.

This file is an executable and may contain <font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff">malicious code</font>, are you sure you wish to run this executable? (yes/no)</div> <div> </div> <div>Or something along those lines. But this will quickly become distracting. The thought at this point is to go with option two, and then simply allow the notice/prompt to be turned off via a configuration entry.</div> <div> </div> <div>Nonetheless, this is a system-wide issue and more importantly a user-awareness issue, and has no more to do with metashell then any other shell or environment.

That includes bash. So all system scripts would still work.</div> <div> </div> <div>This has nothing to do with trust. If you don't trust it, look at the code, or just use BASH.

It is all about choices.</div> <div> </div> <div>And on top of that, you obviously have no issues finding your way around the CLI, so metashell has little advantage for you. Could you use it? Yes. Would there be any learning curve. No. Would it do the same exact thing as your current shell. Yes. Does every command that works within BASH work in metashell, yes.

And although I am sure the normal (unfamiliar person) is still going to try the filename first, they may try adding open the second go-around. Although, we are both coming from people who understand how a shell works. Some people may not realize you even add commands before filenames, or that commands exist, what about them? Is Ms Joan going to be like, "Oh! Duh! I need a command first, in front of the filename I wish to open. I bet "open" would be the command to use to OPEN something.
