cconsole

C console for quick code testing. Written by Eshaan Desh.

How it works

You start in a main function and can write code in short snippets like the Python shell.

How to install

• get the code with wget -O cconsole_main.c https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eshnd/cconsole/refs/heads/main/src/main.c
• compile it! e.g. (using gcc and moving it to /bin) sudo gcc cconsole_main.c -o /bin/cconsole -lreadline -lncurses
• remove the leftover C file with rm cconsole_main.c
• alternatively, you can install cconsole from the AUR

How to run

• Choose your compiler when you run e.g. cconsole clang or cconsole gcc (gcc is default)
• Choose any inclusions you want to have before defining the main function
• Now write any code you want and it'll execute!
• cconsole exit; to exit safely
• cconsole save <filename>; to save code properly

The end

have fun!
