ScreenShell (WB1.3) recommendation

Pierre · 11 June 2021, 02:12

Hello,

I have searched Aminet:util/shell and checked out GoShell, ScreenShell and screenshell_ur but none are Workbench 1.3 compatible. Does anyone have a recommendation for a full screen shell that works under Workbench 1.3?

Cheers Pierre

Zshell works in 1.3 but still has some known bugs.

Thank you for the ZShell recommendation. It is as great a shell for Workbench1.3, it is so fast, even when running from a floppy disk. Unfortunately the ZShell on a public screen option is only for WB2.0+ (I tried but it crashed the A500).
Regards Pierre

That is because public screens did not exist on Kick 1.3. There is in the ViNCEd package a very old and non-maintained version of VNC included (in the "Antique" folder) which runs under 1.3. But I'm not sure in how far this supports a console on a (non-public) screen.

You can also try WShell, see this old thread.
