# Relish
Rusty Expressive LIsp SHell

## Goals
Relish is a language meant to iterate on the ideas and designs that were tested with [SHS](https://gitlab.com/whom/shs). Relish acts as both as a high level scripting language and as a system shell. This language is meant to be practical for administrators and power users. Similar technologies include Python, Bash, and Racket.

## Current Status
- Core functionality (lexing, parsing, evaluation, function and variable tables) is complete and tested
- A primitive REPL is complete

### Pre-alpha release tasks
- Rudimentary control flow (if, loop, let)
- Variable declaration and environment integration

- Stdlib including string operations, arithmetic operations, and file operations
