Simple Network Shell

Simple Network Shell

This is just an minimalistic (and nerdy) shell to use for example as sleep mode appilcation or launcher if you don't want to give an user a full bash on remote login.

Although it is useable, snshell is a quite old project (coded in 2013) and meant to be a example how to simulate UOS. I just put the functionality of Sleep Dummy Shell in it for an other project ;)

• nerdy - the shell mimics the look of Fallout RobCo Industries UOS Shell
• sleep mode - pings every 10 seconds to help to get the connection to stay alive. Usefull for tunneling and unstable connections.
• application launcher - external programs can be defined with INI-files

Based on:

• Sleep Dummy Shell (SleepShell) - http://www.mariovaldez.net/software/sleepshell/
• RobCo Industries Unified Operating System (Fallout universe)

Uses:

• inih -- simple .INI file parser - http://code.google.com/p/inih/

Hints:

• To get the RobCo header on login (like showed above) just look at snshell_ui.c lines 11-19
• Add the programs you want to offer as ini (without .ini suffix) to /opt/snshell/snshell_data/applications
• You must "sudo make install" it to get it to work.
