term/eshell

Description

This module provides additional features for the built-in Emacs Shell

The Emacs Shell or eshell is a shell-like command interpreter implemented in Emacs Lisp. It is an alternative to traditional shells such as bash, zsh, fish, etc. that is built into Emacs and entirely cross-platform.

Maintainers

This module has no dedicated maintainers.

Module Flags

This module provides no flags, but does gain auto-completion if :completion company is enabled.

Hacks

  • Even with fish-completion-fallback-on-bash-p non-nil, fish must be installed for bash completion to work. Workaround in config.el.
  • eshell-did-you-mean does not work on first invocation, so we manually invoke it once.

Prerequisites

fish shell for completions, falling back to bash shell if fish is not found. If neither shell is found, completions may not be available.

Features

  • Command completion with Company
  • fish-style prompt with Git integration
  • z-like directory jumping
  • Command-not-found recommendations
