I have using a combination phpsh, which is proprietary, and file manager, which is a security risk, for about 1/2 decade. I very much wanted to work on phpsh, but, as I couldn't distribute it, I deferred. Also, I have not been a paid technologist since the tech crash of the early 2000s, and my focus has been sociology, education, and psychology -- and long haul trucking ($!)
Since 2000, I have been considering the possibility of a new shell. As great as SH and KSH are, they were, in a sense, proof of concept projects, and some of the syntax is awkward. Also, though it seems contradictory, I think the shell should be object-oriented so that it can represent the motion of objects, such as we are used to on the desktop. When I go started on psych in earnest, and I got to the nitty-gritty of brain functions, I saw no other avenue except functional-orientation, where the premise is that a static organism is dead--we are all in constant motion, all our facilities are functioning, and not objects waiting to be evoked, such as in object-orientation. (In this model, the language comes last; first is to sell the tool as a aid to conceptualization, which, believe me, is an extreme need in psychology!)
