+name: Module hilbish
+description: the core Hilbish API
+layout: apidoc
+---
+
+## Introduction
+The Hilbish module includes the core API, containing
+interfaces and functions which directly relate to shell functionality.
+
+## Functions
+### alias(cmd, orig)
+Sets an alias of `cmd` to `orig`
+
+### appendPath(dir)
+Appends `dir` to $PATH
+
+### complete(scope, cb)
+Registers a completion handler for `scope`.
+A `scope` is currently only expected to be `command.<cmd>`,
+replacing <cmd> with the name of the command (for example `command.git`).
+`cb` must be a function that returns a table of "completion groups."
+Check `doc completions` for more information.
+
+### cwd()
+Returns the current directory of the shell
+
+### exec(cmd)
+Replaces running hilbish with `cmd`
+
+### goro(fn)
+Puts `fn` in a goroutine
+
+### highlighter(line)
+Line highlighter handler. This is mainly for syntax highlighting, but in
+reality could set the input of the prompt to *display* anything. The
+callback is passed the current line and is expected to return a line that
+will be used as the input display.
+
+### hinter(line, pos)
+The command line hint handler. It gets called on every key insert to
+determine what text to use as an inline hint. It is passed the current
+line and cursor position. It is expected to return a string which is used
+as the text for the hint. This is by default a shim. To set hints,
+override this function with your custom handler.
+
+### inputMode(mode)
+Sets the input mode for Hilbish's line reader. Accepts either emacs or vim
+
+### interval(cb, time)
+Runs the `cb` function every `time` milliseconds.
+Returns a `timer` object (see `doc timers`).
+
+### multiprompt(str)
+Changes the continued line prompt to `str`
+
+### prependPath(dir)
+Prepends `dir` to $PATH
+
+### prompt(str, typ)
+Changes the shell prompt to `str`
+There are a few verbs that can be used in the prompt text.
+These will be formatted and replaced with the appropriate values.
+`%d` - Current working directory
+`%u` - Name of current user
+`%h` - Hostname of device
+
+### read(prompt) -> input
+Read input from the user, using Hilbish's line editor/input reader.
+This is a separate instance from the one Hilbish actually uses.
+Returns `input`, will be nil if ctrl + d is pressed, or an error occurs (which shouldn't happen)
+
+### run(cmd, returnOut) -> exitCode, stdout, stderr
+Runs `cmd` in Hilbish's sh interpreter.
+If returnOut is true, the outputs of `cmd` will be returned as the 2nd and
+3rd values instead of being outputted to the terminal.
+
+### runnerMode(mode)
+Sets the execution/runner mode for interactive Hilbish. This determines whether
+Hilbish wll try to run input as Lua and/or sh or only do one of either.
+Accepted values for mode are hybrid (the default), hybridRev (sh first then Lua),
+sh, and lua. It also accepts a function, to which if it is passed one
+will call it to execute user input instead.
+
+### timeout(cb, time)
+Runs the `cb` function after `time` in milliseconds
+Returns a `timer` object (see `doc timers`).
+
+### which(name)
+Checks if `name` is a valid command
+
