An Open Source reimplementation of Windows PowerShell.

Pre-alpha. This project is not yet useful for any real work.

Assuming you have MonoDevelop installed:

1. git clone https://github.com/JayBazuzi/Pash2/
2. cd Pash2
3. xbuild
4. mono Source/PashConsole/bin/Debug/Pash.exe

See CONTRIBUTING.md for more details.

The original release of Pash in 2008 didn't include a LICENSE or COPYING file, or other indication of license. However, at https://sourceforge.net/projects/pash/ it says:

License

BSD License, GNU General Public License (GPL)

I have emailed Igor Moochnick a few times to clarify his licensing intent, but he hasn't responded. So I'm treating that note on sourceforge as authoritative.

Pash was created by Igor Moochnick and published at http://pash.sourceforge.net/ in 2008. After the original release, development ceased.

In 2012, Jay Bazuzi started exploring the project to see what potential it held.
