AquaShell v1.0.2 released
The latest version 1.0.2 along with the previous version 1.0.1 cover some cool additions, improvements and bugfixes that will further empower your shell scripting experience - a tremendous update in december, 2025. ๐ It's been a while since the last project update, but the two version releases v1.0.1 and v1.0.2 brought some cool improvements to the project. That said, there have been changes applied to the plugins which will cause older scripts to potentially become defunct. Specifically the envvars plugin has been renamed to just env and the input plugin has been transformed into the dialog plugin with even more commands. There are also some new commands for the auto plugin available that will provide more possibilities to create automation scripts. Also a very critical bug of the internal path handling of the shell was fixed. Now it flawlessly integrates with winget and also behaves really good as a default windows terminal like I'm using it. Full changelog:
- Created dialog plugin in order to unify dialogs
- Dialog commands for file/folder picker, message box and beeps
- New auto plugin command: aut_getwindowlong
- New auto plugin command: aut_setwindowlong
- New auto plugin command: aut_updatewindow
- New auto plugin command: aut_cleartimer
- Added command to center a form for the forms plugin
- Added command to set a form icon for the forms plugin
- Fixed shell path handling
- Added extended windows style constants to plugins
- New env plugin command: env_getvariable
- New env plugin command: env_setvariable
- Fixed default label colors for forms plugin
- Improved project logo
- Beautified project readme
I'm really excited how the project matured in the last years. It matured to a level that made me eventually use it as my primary shell on Windows. This is a great milestone as it clearly shows that it can compete with other scripting shells on Windows, be it PowerShell, Cmd, AutoHotkey or AutoIt. To many more updates and releases! ๐ช
If you like AquaShell, I'd really appreciate a donation, or even a sponsorship on GitHub. ๐
Also I'd be very happy if you star the repository on GitHub. โจ
