EShell
EShell is a fully POSIX compliant shell written entirely in Emacs Lisp, included with Emacs.
Config
While not a traditional terminal emulator, it provides a native REPL for Emacs Lisp code, with everything in your configuration available in the environment. Make some slight configurations:
-
Don't highlight the prompt
-
Favour use of system utilities
(setq eshell-highlight-prompt nil
eshell-prefer-lisp-functions nil)
Extras
Implement the lambda prompt for aesthetic purposes with the eshell-prompt-extras package. Here's an example of what that looks like:
~/.emacs.d/modules:main*? λ
(use-package eshell-prompt-extras :custom (eshell-prompt-function 'epe-theme-lambda))
Shortcuts
Open eshell in the current buffer with SPC e:
(dotfiles/leader "e" '(eshell :which-key "EShell"))
