No, there isn't an interactive version, but I once tried the API from inside iPython, and that worked.

Pipe is interpreted by the shell and separates the commands on either side, so I don't see how that could work. The very first version of osh actually did run separate commands, connected by a Unix pipe, but the pickling and unpickling costs were extremely high, so I opted for running the whole command in one process.



If you felt like making a full shell replacement I'd help with Python cmdlets. I have a lot of experience reimplementing shell stuff in pythonic Apis.


I'll contact you by email.
