## a-Shell Description
a-Shell is a complete local terminal emulator, allowing to run most Unix commands on your iOS device. You can transfer files using scp and curl, edit them with vim and ed, process them using grep, awk and sed. You can work with git repositories using lg2. 
Most commands are compiled for iOS native Arm64 format, making them fast and well integrated with the BSD Unix that powers iOS/iPadOS.

a-Shell includes Python, Lua, Perl, JavaScript, C, C++ for programming and TeX (texlive 2025, with Tikz and LuaTeX) for text processing. 

There are also multiple network utilities: nslookup, ping, whois, ifconfig... Type help for help, help -l to get the full list of commands. 

a-Shell can be controlled from Shortcuts: run commands in order, process files in a-Shell, get the results as text or files, transfer files to other apps...

a-shell uses iOS 13+ “multiple windows” ability, so you can run multiple shells at the same time, with different commands, in different directories. You can edit a file in one window with vim and process it in the other with python. 

Compile your C or C++ programs to webAssembly using clang or clang++, and execute the resulting binary. A complete webAssembly SDK is included (WASI-libc).

a-Shell is the complete version. If you need a smaller app, and you don't need a C compiler, a TeX engine, or numpy and matplotlib, there is a-Shell mini.

## a-Shell Reviews in Kanada

### ***** "BEST. CLI. EVERRR"
This was already the best, but when I realized I can connect to my raspberry py zero 2 w from a-Shell on my apple phone I realized how good this is. THANK YOU! (Ps: would like to be sure that there won’t be ads, ever)
-- A Ccna student, 2024-12-26

### **--- "great but paste not working"
Love it, but it just pasting on iPhone in the shell does not work out of 5-10 times clicking in the prompt to paste the clipboard
-- Jean Guillaume Isabelle, 2024-10-07

### ***** "The best Termux alternative for ios"
Currently the best Terminal application on the App Store. Use it for my Raspberry pi with ssh. 

Great job dev !
-- gwochefbandy, 2024-03-26

### ***** "Acknowledges shortcomings very quickly"
Responsive, responsible Developer behaviour that should be emulated by others! Fixed a yt-dlp bug that entirely broke my iPad Pro workflow in <3 days. Thank you!! <3
-- Ethical Dilemma, 2023-12-08

### ***** "Very niche app but works very well"
I was surprised at the amount of features this app had. This is just a linux terminal on an iPad, and it works well. I use it to run code and ssh, and both work pretty well. I would recommend using an actual keyboard, since it is a command line. Even so, this app works without a physical keyboard since there’s an escape button you can press on the bar. This app is open source too, which is a bonus. Overall would reccomend
-- tatothepotato, 2023-10-01

### ***** "Perfect"
Literally everything I need. So straightforward, no hassle, easy to use, and it emulates a Linux power shell very effectively and accurately. Clean layout that resembles a terminal on Mac OS computers. It’s also completely free. How more people don’t know about this app is beyond me.
-- Grace101_, 2023-08-03

### ***** "Awesome!"
Awesome terminal app! :)
-- PR4S4D_4096, 2023-01-22

### ***** "Help"
How do I get python to work
-- i like cod best game73(729273, 2023-01-20
