heliko - shell or shell helper inspired of oberon and acme

https://toobnix.org/w/kQQa6Wy6ETx7PT7JkoRjdN

today i have been written this utility i called heliko (snail in esperanto).

i want to create a program for kids or unix newbies to start using computers.

i think that shortcuts make things worse in terms of education: this is not a pipe, and that is not 'my computer', one needs to understand that there are programs, directories and program arguments.

- do we need to type it all? - often ask those presented with terminal.

no, you don't. choose from the commands here, select and click.

add the commands and arguments you are using often to the list.

i believe, when wm starts, user should only see this window. no menus or shortcuts.
