Used technologies

• C style C++ with pottential future “back” porting
• SQLite
• ncurses
• readline

Rationale

C/C++

• fuck pust

NCurses

• i know nothing better that is:

• portable
• reliable
• C compatible
• anyway better than ncurses

SQLite

• sharing history between shell types could be desirable, this is the simplest approach
• having our own storage means that we could support meta informations globally which are not standard for every application

Readline

• we are not trying to replace it in anyways; it only makes sense
