Say hello to M-SHELL: the shell where the community does all of the work.

PPPDUD

M-SHELL is a new open-source shell written in Python where, if you want to fully use it, you've gotta develop for it.
Commands can be installed using the installer provided with your copy or by using a third-party installer.

Command files are just .py files with a .ms extension (e.g, “rickroll.ms”).

The shell and its installer can be found here.

Important note: there are no official prebuilt releases for Unix-like and Unix-based systems at the moment, along with other non-NT based OSes. If you can build us binaries for these OSes, please do.

That's up for your guessing. Technically, there is an official meaning for it, but I'm gonna leave it up to you to try to interpret it.

Why not? Also, I already made the thing before I announced it.

Because custom file extensions are cool.

It isn't Windows-specific, and the M doesn't stand for Microsoft.

Bump. Multiple releases have been made since this was last posted on.

“the shell where the community does all of the work” isn't a very good tagline as it sounds like there are no official maintainers, and also the fact that there is no community, therefore no work being done.

Other than that, it's nice; it's a neat thing to make for fun.
(Also, you shouldn't put the EXE in the repo itself; keep the EXEs in the Releases, please.)
