Built-in Commands Reference

CJ's Shell provides a comprehensive set of built-in commands that are available without requiring external programs. These commands are optimized for both interactive use and shell scripting.

cd

Change the current working directory.

cd [directory]

Use cd without arguments to go to home directory
Use cd - to switch to the previous directory
Smart CD is enabled by default with fuzzy matching

pwd

Print the current working directory.

pwd

Text Output

echo

Print arguments separated by spaces.

echo [args...]

printf

Format and print data using printf-style specifiers.

printf format [arguments...]

Shell Control

exit / quit

Leave the shell with an optional exit status.

exit [n]
quit [n]

help

Display the CJSH command reference.

help

version

Show cjsh version information.

version

Script Execution

source / .

Execute commands from a file in the current shell context.

source filename [arguments...]
. filename [arguments...]

eval

Evaluate a string as shell code.

eval [args...]

exec

exec command [args...]

Variables and Environment

export

Set or display environment variables.

export [name[=value]...]

unset

Remove environment variables.

unset name [name...]

local

Declare local variables inside functions.

local name[=value] [name[=value]...]

readonly

Mark variables as read-only.

readonly name[=value] [name[=value]...]

set

Adjust shell options or positional parameters.

set [options] [args...]

set -o huponexit mirrors bash's hangup behavior toggle; when enabled the shell sends SIGHUP/SIGTERM to managed background jobs as it exits. Leave it off (the default) to keep helpers like dev servers alive until you explicitly stop them.

shift

Rotate positional parameters to the left.

shift [n]

Aliases

alias

Create or list command aliases.

alias [name[=value]...]

unalias

Remove command aliases.

unalias name [name...]

Abbreviations

abbr

Create, update, or list fish-style abbreviations that expand during interactive editing.

abbr [name=expansion ...]

Run without arguments to display all configured abbreviations
Use name=expansion pairs to set or update entries
Triggers that contain whitespace are rejected
Abbreviations expand when the trigger is followed by whitespace or when the line is submitted
Two defaults are shipped with cjsh: abbr → abbreviate and unabbr → unabbreviate

unabbr

Remove one or more fish-style abbreviations.

unabbr name [name...]

Removing a non-existent abbreviation prints a warning but does not stop processing the rest
Pair with abbr to keep a clean set of triggers in your session configuration

Control Flow

if

Run conditional blocks in scripts.

if condition; then
    commands
[elif condition; then
    commands]
[else
    commands]
fi

test / [

Evaluate POSIX test expressions.

test expression
[ expression ]

[[

Evaluate extended test expressions (bash-style).

[[ expression ]]

break

Exit the current loop.

break [n]

continue

Skip to the next loop iteration.

continue [n]

return

Exit the current function with an optional status.

return [n]

:

No-op command that always succeeds.

true

Always succeed and return exit status 0. Handy for conditionals or resetting $?.

true

false

Always fail and return exit status 1. Useful for testing error paths or short-circuiting scripts.

false

Job Control

jobs

List background jobs.

jobs

fg

Bring a job to the foreground.

fg [job_spec]

bg

Resume a job in the background.

bg [job_spec]

wait

Wait for jobs or processes to finish.

wait [pid|job_spec...]

kill

Send signals to jobs or processes.

kill [-signal] pid|job_spec

disown

Detach jobs from the shell so they are no longer listed or sent hangup signals when cjsh exits.

disown [-a|--all] [job_spec...]

With no arguments, the current job is disowned
-a/--all removes every tracked job in one shot
Disowned jobs continue running even if set -o huponexit is enabled later in the session

jobname

Assign or update a friendly display name for a tracked job. The name shows up in jobs, fg, bg, and completions while the job remains in the table.

jobname JOB_SPEC NEW_NAME

JOB_SPEC can be a %job_id, a PID, or any command prefix that normally resolves jobs (fg and bg-style matching)
NEW_NAME is treated as the rest of the command line after JOB_SPEC, so spaces are allowed
Names must contain at least one non-whitespace character; use the original command to revert

Signal Handling

trap

Set signal handlers or list existing traps.

trap [action] [signal...]

Command Information

type

Explain how a command name will be resolved.

type name [name...]

which

Locate executables in PATH.

which name [name...]

hash

Cache command lookups or display the cache.

hash [-r] [name...]

generate-completions

Regenerate cached completion metadata for external commands.

generate-completions [--quiet] [--no-force] [-j jobs] [command ...]

Runs against every executable discoverable in PATH when no command list is supplied
--quiet suppresses per-command status messages and prints only a summary (failures are listed)
--no-force keeps existing cache files and only generates data for missing entries
-j/--jobs limits the number of commands processed simultaneously (defaults to CPU count)
Summary output includes total elapsed time for the run
Use -- to end option parsing when processing command names that start with a dash

builtin

Run a builtin directly, bypassing functions and PATH.

builtin command [args...]

command

Execute a command while bypassing shell functions or print information about it.

command [-pVv] COMMAND [ARG...]

Options: - -p – Temporarily use the default PATH of /usr/bin:/bin when resolving COMMAND - -v – Print a short description of how COMMAND would be resolved - -V – Print a verbose description (builtin, full path, or not found)

When no inspection flags are supplied, command runs the target using the shell's execution engine, allowing you to bypass shell functions that shadow external commands. The command returns the exit status of the invoked program.

Hook System

hook

Manage shell hooks that run at key lifecycle moments.

hook <add|remove|list|clear> [hook_type] [function_name]

Hook types include precmd, preexec, and chpwd. Use hook add inside configuration files to register functions and hook list to inspect active hooks. See hooks.md for complete examples and best practices.

Input/Output

read

Read user input into variables.

read [options] name [name...]

getopts

Parse positional parameters as short options.

getopts optstring name [args...]

History

history

Display command history.

history [n]

Without arguments, displays all history entries
With a number n, displays the last n entries
History is stored in ~/.cache/cjsh/history.txt

fc

Fix Command - edit and re-execute commands from history (POSIX-compliant).

fc [-e editor] [-ln] [first [last]]

Options: - -e editor - Use specified editor (default: $FCEDIT, $EDITOR, or vi) - -l - List commands instead of editing - -n - Suppress line numbers when listing - -r - Reverse order of commands when listing

Arguments: - first - First command to edit/list (default: previous command) - last - Last command to edit/list (default: same as first)

Examples:

# Edit the previous command in your editor
fc

# Edit command number 53
fc 53

# Edit commands 10 through 15
fc 10 15

# List last 16 commands
fc -l

# List commands 10 through 20
fc -l 10 20

# Edit with a specific editor
fc -e nano

# Use with environment variables
export FCEDIT=nano
fc  # Will use nano as the editor

How it works: 1. Opens the specified command(s) in your editor 2. When you save and exit the editor, the modified command is displayed 3. The modified command is automatically executed 4. The result is added to history

Environment Variables: - FCEDIT - Preferred editor for fc (checked first) - EDITOR - Fallback editor if FCEDIT is not set - Default is ed if neither variable is set (POSIX requirement)

Tip: For a better editing experience, set your preferred editor:

export FCEDIT=vi     # or nano, emacs, etc.
export EDITOR=vi     # fallback for other tools too

System Information

times

Show CPU usage for the shell and its children.

times

umask

Show or set the file creation mask.

umask [mode]

ulimit

Inspect or adjust resource limits for the current shell and any processes it launches.

ulimit [-HS] [-a] [-f | -n | -t | ...] [limit]

-a lists every supported limit along with the active hard/soft values.
Use -H or -S to operate on the hard or soft limit respectively (defaults to soft).
Resource selectors mirror the underlying OS (-f file size, -n open files, -t CPU time, -v virtual memory, etc.). Unsupported switches print a descriptive error.
Limits accept numeric values, or the keywords unlimited, hard, or soft.

Run ulimit --help for the full table of supported options on your platform.

Theming and Customization

Prompt Styling

cjsh reads the standard prompt variables, so customizing the look is as simple as exporting new values inside your configuration files:

export PS1='[b]\u[/b] [color=#87ceeb]\w[/color]\n$ '
export RPS1='[ic-hint]\A[/ic-hint]'
export PROMPT_COMMAND='__update_git_info'

Add snippets like these to ~/.cjshrc (or any sourced config) to persist them across sessions. See Prompt Markup and Styling for the full markup reference plus additional examples.

cjshopt

Generate config files and adjust cjsh options.

cjshopt <subcommand> [options]

Available subcommands: - style_def - Define or redefine syntax highlighting styles - login-startup-arg - Add startup flags (config file only) - completion-case - Configure completion case sensitivity - completion-spell - Toggle spell correction suggestions in completions - line-numbers - Configure line numbers in multiline input (on/off/relative/absolute) - line-numbers-replace-prompt - Replace the final prompt line with the line-number gutter - current-line-number-highlight - Toggle highlighting of the current line number - hint-delay - Set hint display delay in milliseconds - completion-preview - Configure completion preview - visible-whitespace - Toggle visible whitespace characters in the editor - hint - Configure inline hints - multiline-indent - Configure auto-indent in multiline input - multiline - Configure multiline input mode - inline-help - Configure inline help messages - auto-tab - Configure automatic tab completion - prompt-newline - Force a blank line after each command - prompt-cleanup - Enable/disable removal of the previous prompt after execution - prompt-cleanup-newline - Control whether cleanup inserts a newline before the next prompt - prompt-cleanup-empty-line - Insert an empty spacer line during cleanup - prompt-cleanup-truncate - Collapse multiline prompts when cleanup runs - right-prompt-follow-cursor - Keep the inline right prompt aligned with the active cursor row - keybind - Inspect or modify key bindings (modifications config file only) - generate-profile - Create or overwrite ~/.cjprofile (use --alt for ~/.config/cjsh/.cjprofile) - generate-rc - Create or overwrite ~/.cjshrc (use --alt for ~/.config/cjsh/.cjshrc) - generate-logout - Create or overwrite ~/.cjsh_logout (use --alt for ~/.config/cjsh/.cjsh_logout) - set-history-max - Configure history persistence limits - set-completion-max - Limit the maximum number of completion suggestions shown

Interact with the embedded line editor (isocline) to drive advanced key bindings.

cjsh-widget <subcommand> [...]

Available subcommands include: - get-buffer / set-buffer – Read or replace the active input buffer - get-cursor / set-cursor – Inspect or move the cursor (byte offsets) - insert / append / clear – Modify buffer contents near the cursor or reset the line - accept – Simulate pressing Enter to submit the current buffer

These commands are primarily used from custom key bindings and widgets rather than typed interactively. Combine them with cjshopt keybind ext inside ~/.cjshrc to create bespoke editing behaviors.

Persist startup flags that should be applied before the interactive configuration is sourced. This command is only honored inside startup files such as ~/.cjprofile; running it at an interactive prompt prints an error.

cjshopt login-startup-arg <flag>

Supported flags:

Flag	Effect
`--login`	Mark the current shell instance as a login shell
`--interactive`	Force interactive startup behavior
`--no-colors`	Disable colorized prompt and syntax output
`--no-titleline`	Disable terminal title updates on startup
`--show-startup-time`	Print the time spent initializing cjsh
`--no-source`	Skip sourcing interactive configuration files
`--no-completions`	Skip completion initialization
`--no-syntax-highlighting`	Disable syntax highlighting in the editor
`--no-history-expansion`	Disable `!!`, `!$`, and related history tokens
`--no-sh-warning`	Suppress the reminder shown when cjsh is invoked via `sh`
`--minimal`	Disable prompt themes/colors, completions, syntax highlighting, rc sourcing, title line, history expansion, multiline line numbers, and auto-indentation
`--secure`	Skip profile/rc/logout sourcing even for login shells
`--startup-test`	Enable startup test mode

Add one line per flag in ~/.cjprofile to persist the desired behavior:

# Inside ~/.cjprofile
cjshopt login-startup-arg --minimal
cjshopt login-startup-arg --show-startup-time

completion-case

Toggle whether tab completions treat case as significant. Synonyms such as enable, disable, true, and false are also accepted for convenience.

cjshopt completion-case <on|off|status>

Examples:

cjshopt completion-case on      # Case-sensitive matching
cjshopt completion-case off     # Case-insensitive matching (default)
cjshopt completion-case status  # Show the current mode

Add the command to ~/.cjshrc if you want the preference remembered across sessions.

completion-spell

Enable, disable, or inspect spell correction inside the completion engine. When enabled, cjsh will try to fix minor typos before offering suggestions. The subcommand also accepts synonyms such as enable, disable, true, false, and --status.

cjshopt completion-spell <on|off|status>

Examples:

cjshopt completion-spell on       # Turn on spell correction
cjshopt completion-spell status   # Display the current state

Persist the choice by placing the command in ~/.cjshrc.

line-numbers

Enable, disable, or inspect line numbers in multiline input mode. When enabled, cjsh will display numbers on the left side of multiline input, making it easier to navigate and edit multi-line commands or scripts. You can choose between absolute numbering (the default) or relative numbering, which shows the distance to the active cursor line.

cjshopt line-numbers <on|off|relative|absolute|status>

Examples:

cjshopt line-numbers on       # Enable line numbers in multiline input
cjshopt line-numbers relative # Switch to relative numbering
cjshopt line-numbers off      # Disable line numbers in multiline input
cjshopt line-numbers status   # Show the current setting

Add the command to ~/.cjshrc to persist the setting across sessions. The subcommand also accepts synonyms such as enable, disable, true, false, absolute, and rel/relative.

Tip: Style the line numbers themselves with cjshopt style_def ic-linenumbers "color=#FFB86C" (or any other style). See cjshopt style_def for the full list of supported style directives.

line-numbers-continuation

Control whether multiline line numbers remain visible when a continuation prompt marker (PS2) is configured. By default, configuring a continuation prompt hides the numbers; enabling this option keeps them aligned with the continuation marker instead.

cjshopt line-numbers-continuation <on|off|status>

Examples:

cjshopt line-numbers-continuation on      # Keep line numbers even with custom continuation prompts
cjshopt line-numbers-continuation off     # Hide line numbers whenever a continuation prompt exists
cjshopt line-numbers-continuation status  # Show the current setting

Add the command to ~/.cjshrc to persist the setting across sessions. Synonyms such as enable, disable, true, false, and --status are also accepted.

line-numbers-replace-prompt

Swap the final line of a multi-line prompt (the row that normally precedes your input) with the line-number gutter. This option only takes effect when line numbers are active and either no custom PS2 is configured or cjshopt line-numbers-continuation on is in effect.

cjshopt line-numbers-replace-prompt <on|off|status>

Examples:

cjshopt line-numbers-replace-prompt on      # Replace the final prompt line with the numeric gutter
cjshopt line-numbers-replace-prompt off     # Keep the final prompt line visible
cjshopt line-numbers-replace-prompt status  # Show the current setting

Add the command to ~/.cjshrc to persist the setting across sessions.

current-line-number-highlight

Enable or disable highlighting of the current line number in multiline input mode. When enabled (default), the line number for the line containing the cursor is displayed in a different style than other line numbers.

cjshopt current-line-number-highlight <on|off|status>

Examples:

cjshopt current-line-number-highlight on      # Enable current line highlighting
cjshopt current-line-number-highlight off     # Disable current line highlighting
cjshopt current-line-number-highlight status  # Show the current setting

Add the command to ~/.cjshrc to persist the setting across sessions. Accepts synonyms like enable, disable, true, and false.

Tip: Customize the current line number style with cjshopt style_def ic-linenumber-current "bold color=#FFB86C" to make it stand out from regular line numbers styled with ic-linenumbers.

hint-delay

Configure the delay (in milliseconds) before inline hints are displayed. This controls how quickly the shell shows suggestions and hints as you type.

cjshopt hint-delay <milliseconds>

Examples:

cjshopt hint-delay 100     # Set hint delay to 100 milliseconds
cjshopt hint-delay 0       # Show hints immediately
cjshopt hint-delay status  # Show the current delay setting

Valid range: 0 and above (0 shows hints immediately)
Default: Varies based on system configuration

Place the command in ~/.cjshrc to keep the delay setting between sessions.

completion-preview

Toggle the completion preview feature, which shows a preview of the selected completion as you navigate through completion options.

cjshopt completion-preview <on|off|status>

Examples:

cjshopt completion-preview on      # Enable completion preview
cjshopt completion-preview off     # Disable completion preview
cjshopt completion-preview status  # Show the current setting

The subcommand accepts synonyms such as enable, disable, true, and false. Add to ~/.cjshrc to persist the preference.

visible-whitespace

Show or hide visible markers for whitespace characters (such as spaces) while editing commands. When enabled, spaces are rendered with a subtle middle-dot marker so you can spot trailing or double spacing issues.

cjshopt visible-whitespace <on|off|status>

Examples:

cjshopt visible-whitespace on      # Show whitespace markers while editing
cjshopt visible-whitespace off     # Hide whitespace markers (default)
cjshopt visible-whitespace status  # Show the current setting

Add the command to ~/.cjshrc to keep the preference across sessions. Synonyms like enable, disable, true, and false are accepted.

hint

Enable, disable, or inspect inline hints that appear as you type commands. Hints can include suggestions, command completions, and other helpful information.

cjshopt hint <on|off|status>

Examples:

cjshopt hint on       # Enable inline hints
cjshopt hint off      # Disable inline hints
cjshopt hint status   # Show the current setting

Synonyms like enable, disable, true, and false are supported. Persist the setting by adding the command to ~/.cjshrc.

multiline-indent

Configure automatic indentation in multiline input mode. When enabled, the shell will automatically indent continuation lines based on the context (e.g., after opening braces, parentheses, or control structures).

cjshopt multiline-indent <on|off|status>

Examples:

cjshopt multiline-indent on       # Enable automatic indentation
cjshopt multiline-indent off      # Disable automatic indentation
cjshopt multiline-indent status   # Show the current setting

This is particularly useful when writing shell scripts or complex commands directly in the shell. Add to ~/.cjshrc to keep the setting. Accepts synonyms such as enable, disable, true, and false.

multiline

Enable or disable multiline input mode entirely. When enabled, you can enter commands that span multiple lines. When disabled, the shell treats each line as a separate command.

cjshopt multiline <on|off|status>

Examples:

cjshopt multiline on       # Enable multiline input
cjshopt multiline off      # Disable multiline input
cjshopt multiline status   # Show the current setting

Disabling multiline mode may be useful for simple command execution or when working with scripts that don't require multi-line editing. Accepts synonyms like enable, disable, true, and false. Persist by adding to ~/.cjshrc.

inline-help

Toggle inline help messages that appear as you type commands. These messages can provide quick information about command syntax, options, and usage.

cjshopt inline-help <on|off|status>

Examples:

cjshopt inline-help on       # Enable inline help messages
cjshopt inline-help off      # Disable inline help messages
cjshopt inline-help status   # Show the current setting

Supports synonyms such as enable, disable, true, and false. Add the command to ~/.cjshrc to make the setting permanent.

status-hints

Control the underlined status hint banner (the line that lists keys like complete, history search, and help). Pick when it appears using one of four modes:

off – never display the banner.
normal – only show the banner when both the input buffer and status area are empty (default).
transient – show the banner whenever the status area has no other content.
persistent – always prepend the banner above any other status message.

cjshopt status-hints <off|normal|transient|persistent|status>

Examples:

cjshopt status-hints normal      # Only surface the hints on an empty prompt
cjshopt status-hints persistent  # Keep the banner visible at all times
cjshopt status-hints status      # Show the current mode

Add the command to ~/.cjshrc to persist the mode across sessions.

status-line

Remove or restore the entire status row beneath the prompt, including syntax feedback and the hint banner.

cjshopt status-line <on|off|status>

on (default) – allow syntax validation text and status-hints output to appear.
off – suppress the status row completely; the last status-hints mode is remembered for when you turn it back on.

Examples:

cjshopt status-line off     # Hide validation output and the hint banner
cjshopt status-line on      # Restore the status row using the last hint mode
cjshopt status-line status  # Display the current setting

Add the command to ~/.cjshrc to persist the preference.

status-reporting

Keep the status line visible for banners and custom output, but disable cjsh’s built-in syntax/error reporting.

cjshopt status-reporting <on|off|status>

on (default) – run cjsh’s validation pipeline and print its summary below the prompt.
off – suppress cjsh-generated status messages while leaving status-hints (and any custom callbacks) intact.

Examples:

cjshopt status-reporting off     # Keep hint banners but hide validation output
cjshopt status-reporting on      # Re-enable syntax feedback
cjshopt status-reporting status  # Display the current setting

Persist preferences by adding the command to ~/.cjshrc.

auto-tab

Configure automatic tab completion behavior. When enabled, the shell may automatically complete commands or show completions without requiring explicit tab key presses. Disabled by default.

cjshopt auto-tab <on|off|status>

Examples:

cjshopt auto-tab on       # Enable automatic tab completion
cjshopt auto-tab off      # Disable automatic tab completion (default)
cjshopt auto-tab status   # Show the current setting

Accepts synonyms including enable, disable, true, and false. Place in ~/.cjshrc to persist the preference across sessions.

keybind

Inspect or customize isocline key bindings. Modifying bindings requires running the command from a configuration file (~/.cjshrc); runtime changes are only supported for inspection.

cjshopt keybind <subcommand> [...]

Key subcommands include:

list - Show the active profile plus default vs. custom bindings (runtime safe)
set <action> <keys...> - Replace bindings for an action
add <action> <keys...> - Add additional bindings for an action
clear <keys...> - Remove the provided key specifications
clear-action <action> - Remove all custom bindings for an action
reset - Drop every custom binding and restore defaults
profile list - List available key binding profiles (runtime safe)
profile set <name> - Persist the named profile

Key specifications accept pipe (|) separated alternatives, so Ctrl+K|Ctrl+X is a single argument covering both sequences. Place commands like cjshopt keybind set cursor-left "Ctrl+H" in ~/.cjshrc to keep them between sessions.

set-history-max

Adjust the number of entries stored in the persistent history file.

cjshopt set-history-max <number|default|status>

Provide any non-negative number (0 disables history persistence entirely)
Use default to restore the built-in limit of 1000 entries
Use status (or --status) to display the current setting

Examples:

cjshopt set-history-max 0        # Disable history persistence
cjshopt set-history-max 500      # Retain the latest 500 commands
cjshopt set-history-max default  # Go back to the default limit
cjshopt set-history-max status   # Show the current limit

Commands added to ~/.cjshrc are applied automatically at startup.

set-completion-max

Limit how many completion entries are generated and displayed inside the menu each time you press Tab.

cjshopt set-completion-max <number|default|status>

Provide any number greater than or equal to 1
Use default to restore the built-in limit of 1000 entries
Use status (or --status) to inspect the current setting

Examples:

cjshopt set-completion-max 50        # Show at most 50 suggestions
cjshopt set-completion-max default   # Restore the default cap
cjshopt set-completion-max status    # Display the current limit

Lowering the cap trims visual noise and speeds up completion-heavy commands, especially when thousands of filesystem matches would otherwise be generated. Add the command to ~/.cjshrc to persist the preference.

prompt-newline

Control whether cjsh prints a blank line after every command, regardless of what your prompt already emitted.

cjshopt prompt-newline on
cjshopt prompt-newline off
cjshopt prompt-newline status

Enable the toggle to keep transcripts readable when prompts have dense information; disable it for a compact display.

prompt-cleanup

Remove the previous prompt before printing command output. This keeps long prompts from duplicating when you scroll back through logs.

cjshopt prompt-cleanup on
cjshopt prompt-cleanup off

Pair this with the newline/empty-line toggles below for additional spacing control.

prompt-cleanup-newline

Decide whether prompt cleanup inserts a newline before the next prompt renders.

cjshopt prompt-cleanup-newline on
cjshopt prompt-cleanup-newline off

When enabled, you always get a spacer line between commands once cleanup runs.

prompt-cleanup-empty-line

Insert an extra empty line while cleanup runs. This is useful when you want one blank line before and after prompts in transcripts.

cjshopt prompt-cleanup-empty-line on
cjshopt prompt-cleanup-empty-line off

prompt-cleanup-truncate

Collapse multiline prompts to a single line after a command has executed so the previous prompt does not dominate your scrollback.

cjshopt prompt-cleanup-truncate on
cjshopt prompt-cleanup-truncate off

All prompt-cleanup toggles accept status to report their current state and can be persisted by adding the commands to ~/.cjshrc.

right-prompt-follow-cursor

Make the inline right prompt (RPS1/RPROMPT) follow the cursor row while editing multi-line input. When disabled (default), the right prompt always renders on the first line even if the cursor moves down the buffer.

cjshopt right-prompt-follow-cursor on
cjshopt right-prompt-follow-cursor off
cjshopt right-prompt-follow-cursor status

Enabling the toggle keeps status blocks such as clocks or Git metadata aligned with the active input line, which is especially helpful for long pipelines that wrap across multiple rows.
