gollark: Oh, and you could add some cool shell features, like piping, and a simple logic system.
gollark: Or at least `/rom/programs/whatever` or the shell's internal path thingy. I'm sure it has one.
gollark: Okay then. Make your shell run from `/rom/programs/` too and it will be non-broken.
gollark: ... well?
gollark: Some offense, but... ColroOS is basically a package manager, a broken shell, and a few wrappers for CraftOS programs?
