It is included by default in standard Hilbish distributions to provide easy styling for things like prompts and text.
For simple usage, a single color or style is enough. For example, you can just use lunacolors.blue 'Hello world' and that&amp;rsquo;ll return blue text which you can print. This includes styles like bold, underline, etc.
In other usage, you may want to use a format string instead of having multiple nested functions for different styles.</description></item><item><title>Frequently Asked Questions</title><link>https://rosettea.github.io/Hilbish/versions/refs/tags/v2.2.0/docs/faq/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://rosettea.github.io/Hilbish/versions/refs/tags/v2.2.0/docs/faq/</guid><description>Is Hilbish POSIX compliant? No, it is not. POSIX compliance is a non-goal. Perhaps in the future, someone would be able to write a native plugin to support shell scripting (which would be against it&amp;rsquo;s main goal, but &amp;hellip;.)
Windows Support? It compiles for Windows (CI ensures it does), but otherwise it is not directly supported. If you&amp;rsquo;d like to improve this situation, checkout the discussion .
Why? Hilbish emerged from the desire of a Lua configured shell.</description></item><item><title>Getting Started</title><link>https://rosettea.github.io/Hilbish/versions/refs/tags/v2.2.0/docs/getting-started/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://rosettea.github.io/Hilbish/versions/refs/tags/v2.2.0/docs/getting-started/</guid><description>To start Hilbish, open a terminal. If Hilbish has been installed and is not the default shell, you can simply run hilbish to start it. This will launch a normal interactive session. To exit, you can either run the exit command or hit Ctrl+D.
Setting as Default Login shell There are a few ways to make Hilbish your default shell. A simple way is to make it your user/login shell.</description></item><item><title/><link>https://rosettea.github.io/Hilbish/versions/refs/tags/v2.2.0/docs/jobs/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://rosettea.github.io/Hilbish/versions/refs/tags/v2.2.0/docs/jobs/</guid><description>(This has mainly been replaced by hilbish.jobs ).
Hilbish has pretty standard job control. It&amp;rsquo;s missing one or two things, but works well. One thing which is different from other shells (besides Hilbish) itself is the API for jobs, and of course it&amp;rsquo;s in Lua. You can add jobs, stop and delete (disown) them and even get output.
Job Interface The job interface refers to hilbish.jobs.

See the link for how to use it.
To create completions for a command is simple. The callback will be passed 3 parameters:
query (string): The text that the user is currently trying to complete. This should be used to match entries. ctx (string): Contains the entire line. Use this if more text is needed to be parsed for context. fields (string): The ctx split up by spaces.</description></item></channel></rss>
