🐚 cross-platform library to execute commands in a new shells
> When you have many cli apps that takes the whole terminal, it's useful to run them all with a single command
## Features
- 👯♂️ Attempts to use the current terminal
- 🌏 Cross-platform
- 📄 Runs js files with node
- 🗃 Opens the new shell in current working directory
- 🎛 Supports spliting with `iterm2`
## CLI
#### Run a command in a new shell
> prints "hello world" in a new shell window
```sh
newshell "echo 'hello world'"
```
> The new shell will run in the same working directory.
```sh
# See for yourself 👀
newshell pwd
```
> You can run multiple shells
```sh
newshell "npx tsc --watch" "npx jest --watch"
```
### --file
```sh
newshell --file "./script.sh"
```
> Supports running node for javascript files
```sh
newshell --file "./script.js"
```
## Node API
### command
> has the same capabilities of the cli
```ts
command(script: string, options: Options): void
```
```ts
type Options = {
env?: Record = {};
split?: boolean = false;
splitDirection?: string = "verticaly";
terminalApp?: string | undefined = $TERM_PROGRAM;
};
```
### file
> similar to --file
```ts
file(scriptPath: string): void
```
## Future
- Run npm scripts in a new terminal (and resolve bins from the `node_modules/.bin` directory)
- Controll the focus of the terminal window
- Pass environment parameters from the CLI
- Manage IPC with the other terminal window (similar to `child_process.fork`)
