I'm aiming to replace bash.

In theory toysh should be a fully functional shell. I'm planning to build linux from scratch and chunks of beyond linux from scratch under it early next year. I've mentioned it's still missing some stuff, but it's mostly there. The command line editing is what you'll really miss if you try to use it. (Tab completion, history, cursor left and right to insert in the middle of the line... Not hard, probably less plumbing than "top" already uses, I just haven't done it yet.)
