Snail A Snail is a shell script interpreter instance.

Methods

dir(path) Changes the directory of the snail instance. The interpreter keeps its set directory even when the Hilbish process changes directory, so this should be called on the hilbish.cd hook.

run(command, streams) Runs a shell command. Works the same as hilbish.run, but only accepts a table of streams.
