What is Oil?

Oil is a new Unix shell. Why Create a New Unix Shell? This repo contains a bash-compatible shell called OSH, written in Python. The dialect of bash that is recognized is called the OSH language. The Oil language has been designed but not implemented. OSH is written in Python, but we deploy a native executable. A subset of the Python-2.7.13/ directory is packaged with the application.
