iPhoneショートカット + a-shellが最強かもしれない|ひか。 note.com/hika966/n/n6... ショートカットアプリで呼び出せるのがまたやばい。 ファイルアプリ経由(写真アプリ)でもブラウザでもなんでも出来そう。 ただなんでも出来そうな分今んとこ活用方法が思い浮かばんね。。。

外出用作業環境を構成するために 外出先でもデータを作成したり確認したり、現代人は忙しい日々を送っていると思います。 しかし、ノートPCを持ち運んで作業するには少し荷物が多くなる・・・ カバンから出して開いて起動して・・・ 時間ももったいない気がする。 vimでサクッと作ってgit pushできるのありがたい そこでiPhoneに「iSH shell」「a-shell」を入れ iPhone...

今日もiPadでHappyHackingしてますか?どうも魚住です。 大学でLinuxに触れてからCUIの虜になってしまい、コマンドを叩き続けてきました。makeしたりカーネルからコンパイルしてみたり。人並みですが、Linuxを普段使いしてきました。

Version 2.2.0 is now out on the AppStore. It has lots of bug fixes (including one where the screen would not scroll), but also: - a new WebAssembly interpreter (WasmKit) - updated llvm/clang to version 22.1.0 If you use clang/clang++, you'll need to re-download the SDK with "pkg install llvm-22".

Advanced warning for a-Shell users: currently, a-Shell has a minimum iOS requirement set to iOS 14. Apple just told us that, starting Spring 2027, we'll have to increase that to iOS 15. We apologize for any inconvenience.

there is a really good app that lets you use your iphone/ipad's file system like a terminal (select the folder with pickFolder) it has a text editor (vim) and ffmpeg, and i much prefer to use it to move, rename, and delete files (and make scripts for that) apps.apple.com/app/id147380...

The current AppStore rankings for iPad (probably for my local country). An enormous thank you for everyone who made this possible. I think that's our best ranking so far (and I don't think we can overtake the top two, so it's also probably our best possible ranking);
Chart of AppStore rankings, with a-Shell in 4th place for free iPad apps (behind TestFlight, GitHub and LocalDevVPN)

@a-shell-ios.bsky.social Nice shell! Glad u made one for iOS. I admined/used UNIX (& later Linux) for many years. Always enjoyed shells as they made it much easier to maintain the OS. EVERYONE should try A-Shell. Not just for developers, it is for power users. If ur a power user, u need a shell.

One of the oldest issues in a-Shell is now fixed: pandoc is available! Try "pkg install pandoc" and enjoy. (this is thanks to the Pandoc developer, who provided a webAssembly build) (and it cannot generate PDFs directly, but you can generate LaTeX files and compile them to PDF with pdflatex)

Big version number release day: version 2.0 is now out on the AppStore! The terminal rendering system switched to SwiftTerm by @migueldeicaza.bsky.social. It's much faster and responsive, and also supports input from Korean, Braille and Vietnamese keyboards. We also get multi-arrow buttons.

If you're part of a *very* small crowd that: a) uses a terminal on iOS or iPadOS, and b) uses VoiceOver in your workflow, a-Shell is currently upgrading its rendering system (moving to SwiftTerm by @migueldeicaza.bsky.social ) and I'm looking for more beta-testers. testflight.apple.com/join/WUdKe3f4

Version 1.16.1 of a-Shell (a terminal for iOS) is now out on the AppStore: - a new command, "repeatCommand", will execute the command given in argument at regular intervals. repeatCommand with no arguments shows the current command, and "repeatCommand --stop" will stop the repetition.

Version 1.16.0 of a-Shell is now out with the texlive-2025 binaries.

A-Shell @a-shell-ios.bsky.social · 26/05/2025
The TestFlight version of a-Shell has the texlive-2025 binaries (and you can install a basic texlive-2025 distribution with "pkg install texlive-2025"). If you're an a-Shell TeX user, can you test it before I make it the official release?

A-Shell @a-shell-ios.bsky.social · 11/12/2024
a-Shell has two types of binaries: native binaries, compiled to Arm64, and WebAssembly binaries. The former have to be embedded with the app, the latter can be downloaded on demand with "pkg". I regularly add new WebAssembly commands. The latest are "morse" and "age", the encryption tool. Enjoy.

Two big news today: - a-Shell has reached one million installs (cumulated for both apps: 539k for a-Shell, 461k for a-Shell mini) - we have a new version on the AppStore: 1.15.9 What's new: h.265 encoding for ffmpeg and HEIF decoding for ImageMagick, updated bc, plus *tons* of bug fixes.

Version 1.15.7 is out on tha AppStore (a-Shell and a-Shell mini). It fixes issues with the WebAssembly interpreters: how they scan directories, and how they set modification/acces dates. The bad news is there's a backward incompatibility: if you installed zip or xz, you'll have to reinstall them.

A-Shell @a-shell-ios.bsky.social · 19/11/2024
New account, for all announcements related to a-Shell (the iOS terminal app). New release is version 1.15.7, coming soon, with minor changes.
