Relish

Rusty Expressive LIsp SHell

Goals

Relish is a language meant to iterate on the ideas and designs that were tested with 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.
