Brainf*ck Shell

Brainf*ck Shell: Interpret your commands as brainfuck because you most definitely want that.

Fallstop/brainfuck-shell

A new type of shell based off nu-shell that takes your commands in brainf*ck.

Example:

> """
+++++ ++++[ ->+++ +++++ +<]>+ +++++ +++++ +++++ ++.<+ ++[-> +++<] >+++.
+++++ +++.- ---.< ++++[ ->--- -<]>- -.<++ ++[-> ++++< ]>+++ +++++ .<+++
+++++ +[->- ----- ---<] >---- ----. <++++ +++++ [->++ +++++ ++<]> +++++
+.<++ +[->- --<]> ----- -.<++ ++[-> ++++< ]>+.< """

Executing: cowsay why
 _____ 
< why >
 ----- 
           ^__^
           (oo)_______
            (__)       )/\/
                ||----w |
                ||     ||

Learning more

Other than the brainf*ck part, the rest of this is just forked from nu-shell, so send love over there and find more about configuration commands for the shell.

About the interpreter

The interpreter is a bit unusual, as it is 128bit, but overwise it is pretty standard.
