The Ophidia Terminal is an advanced bash-like interpreter through which it is possible to submit arbitrary requests to an Ophidia Server.
A user can submit simple commands in an interactive and sequential manner as well as complex workflows, described by JSON files structured according to the Ophidia Workflow JSON Schema.
It provides the possibility to use environment variables and aliases, keyboard shortcuts, recursive history search, coloured outputs, implicit session management etc.
