Description-en: small and non-interactive scripting language
Execline is a (non-interactive) scripting language, like sh; but its
syntax is quite different from a traditional shell syntax. The execlineb
program is meant to be used as an interpreter for a text file; the other
commands are essentially useful inside an execlineb script.
.
Execline is as powerful as a shell: it features conditional loops,
getopt-style option handling, filename globbing, and more. Meanwhile, its
syntax is far more logic and predictable than the shell's syntax, and has
no security issues.
.
Execline binaries are installed in /usr/lib/execline/bin, please add it to
PATH before using them.
