Getting Started

%SYS> zpm "install zbash"
// OR
zpm:%SYS> install zbash

Run bash command

%SYS> zbash "echo hello"

%SYS> zbash "whereis ssh"

%SYS> zbash "ps aux | grep irisdb"

Support for interactive features

  • This is a wrapper around /bin/bash -c "command" 2>&1
  • Wrapper means that your command is executed and you get the output. There is no TTY or input.
  • No guarantees that all commands work
    • For example, any interactive command needs a helper program, such as sshpass for ssh connections.

Welcome to the zbash help page!

zbash is a command shortcut that allows you to execute a command in a Bash shell without having to manually enter the shell. This can be useful if you need to quickly execute a command or if you prefer to work in a Bash environment.

Usage:
zbash "[command]"

Examples:

zbash "ls" : Execute the ls command in a Bash shell
zbash "python script.py" : Execute a Python script in a Bash shell
zbash "cd /path/to/directory && python script.py" : Change the current working directory in a Bash shell

Notes:

The zbash command will automatically start a new Bash shell for each invocation.
zbash does not support user input.
To exit the Bash shell and return to the previous shell, type 'exit' at the Bash prompt.

I hope this information helps you use zbash effectively. If you have any further questions or concerns, please consult the Bash documentation.
