lsh is a new shell focused in bridging functional programming concepts
into one of the most traditional (yet powerful) computer interfaces ever
made -- the shell. The shell stands as an interface between the
programmer and indispensable tools, the system administrator and the
tasks he has to accomplish, the power user and the control over his
machine.

lsh uses Cabal for building and packaging Haskell libraries and
programs. This way users can leverage the common interface for package
authors and distributors to easily build lsh in a portable way,
administer dependencies etc.
Nevertheless, we list the modules our project is comprised of:
ConfigFile.hs -- parsing code for the .lshrc configuration file
Evaluator.hs -- evaluation of parsed input
Help.hs -- contains hardcoded strings, mostly for testing
Main.hs -- entry point for the project, incl. interactive and non-interactive mode
Parser.hs -- parsing of user input
Setup.hs -- Cabal setup file
Tests.hs -- Testing code, (added to pre-commit hook)
Types.hs -- datatype definitions, accessors
lsh.cabal -- commented cabal file, listing dependencies, license etc.
README.md -- This README file, often containing obsolete info.
LICENSE -- BSD license
