A unixy interactive shell for Posix and Windows systems

• Be a convenient interactive shell
• Feel familiar to long-time unix users by using the Bourne syntax
• Have discoverable builtins and help
• Run on Windows without requiring cygwin, msys or wsl

• I don't want to replace /bin/sh or /bin/bash shebang usage. I don't believe in long shell scripts and I don't think wzsh should try to compete in that space. More information
