EXCELLENT User Rating

a-Shell mini is a comprehensive local terminal emulator that provides the ability to run various Unix commands on your iOS device. Its features include file transfers using scp and curl, editing capabilities with vim and ed, and efficient file processing using grep, awk, and sed. Additionally, users can work with git repositories through lg2.

In terms of programming and scripting, a-Shell mini supports Python, Lua, JavaScript, and webAssembly. Furthermore, it offers native ffmpeg and convert for rapid image and video conversion.

The application also offers a range of useful network utilities such as nslookup, ping, whois, and ifconfig. Typing "help" will provide assistance, while "help -l" offers a comprehensive list of available commands.

One notable feature is a-Shell mini's integration with Shortcuts. Users can run commands sequentially, process files within the application, retrieve results as text or files, and even transfer files to other apps.

To enhance multitasking capabilities, a-Shell mini leverages the "multiple windows" functionality introduced in iPadOS 13+. This allows users to simultaneously run multiple shells with distinct commands and directories. For example, one window may be used for editing files with vim while another performs file processing with python.

a-Shell mini is specifically designed as a minimalist terminal tool with a minimal storage requirement of less than 250 MB. For users seeking a broader array of commands, we recommend considering a-Shell. This full version offers additional Python packages, JavaScript modules, Perl support, compilation capabilities with C and C++, as well as TeX integration.
