Yori: CMD reimagined
Yori is a CMD replacement shell that supports backquotes, job control, and improves tab completion, file matching, aliases, command history, and more. It includes a handful of native Win32 tools that implement commonly needed tasks which can be used with any shell.
Build
Compiling currently requires Visual C++, version 2 or newer. To compile, run NMAKE. Once compiled, YMAKE.EXE allows for more efficient subsequent compilation, using all cores in the machine. For build options, run "NMAKE buildhelp".
License
Yori is available under the MIT license.
System requirements
For the core shell and components, NT 3.1 or newer for 32 bit; XP 64 or newer for 64 bit. Individual features may require newer versions. Note the ysetup.exe installer works best with NT 4 and IE 4 or newer.
To install on older versions:
| Release | Considerations |
|---|---|
| Nano Server | Use the native AMD64 installer. |
| 95, 98 or Me | These releases are not supported and extensive changes would be required to execute on them. |
| NT 4 for MIPS | Ensure IE 3 is installed, and use the MIPS installer . |
| NT 4 with IE 2 | Install the wintdist.exe redistributable which contains the IE 3 wininet.dll before running the installer. |
| NT 3.5x | Install the wint351.exe redistributable which contains the IE 3 wininet.dll before running the installer. |
| NT 3.1 | No installer exists. Files must be copies to the machine manually. |
