and also provides the sh and Lua runner functions that Hilbish itself uses.
A runner function is expected to return 3 values: the input, exit code, and an error.
The input return is there incase you need to prompt for more input.
If you don’t, just return the input passed to the runner function.
The exit code has to be a number, it will be 0 otherwise and the error can be
<code>nil</code> to indicate no error.</p><h3id=functions>Functions</h3><p>These are the “low level” functions for the <code>hilbish.runner</code> interface.</p><ul><li>setMode(mode) > The same as <code>hilbish.runnerMode</code></li><li>sh(input) -> input, code, err > Runs <code>input</code> in Hilbish’s sh interpreter</li><li>lua(input) -> input, code, err > Evals <code>input</code> as Lua code</li></ul><p>The others here are defined in Lua and have EmmyLua documentation.
