Lisp Shell

In plain words

Lisp Shell is a command-line interface that uses Lisp programming language syntax instead of traditional shell commands. Designed for developers and programmers familiar with Lisp, it allows users to interact with their operating system and manage files using Lisp expressions. The tool is available on GitHub and appeals to those who prefer functional programming approaches to system administration and scripting tasks.

  A Lisp Interpreter for Shell Scripting2025 · github.com · ▲114

  Redstart is a lightweight Lisp interpreter written in C++ with a focus on shell scripting. It lets you combine the expressive power of Lisp with the practicality of the Unix shell: you can run commands, capture output, pipe between processes, and still use Lisp syntax for logic and structure. Think of it as writing your shell scripts in Lisp instead of Bash.
