Alpha. This project is useful in certain constrained applications, e.g. the NuGet Console in Xamarin Studio.
Assuming you have MonoDevelop installed:
git clone ...
cd Pash
xbuild
mono Source/PashConsole/bin/Debug/Pash.exe
See CONTRIBUTING.md
for more details, especially if you see funny characters on startup.
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 moved the project to GitHub and got things going again. A bunch of generous contributors have since joined in, keeping the project moving forward a bit at a time.
