NodeJs wrapper around the CLIPS interpreter

The CLIPS interpreter lacks basic fonctionalities like historic and tab completion. This project provides:

• historic
• completion
  • common CLIPS words completion
  • "whatever you typed before" completion
  • clips files completion
• no need for the first and last parenthesis (if you put them anyway its fine too)
• you can stop the run command with ctrl+c
• some macros and aliases:
  • init <filename> <=> (clear)\n(load "<filename>")\n(reset)
  • filename.clp <=> init filename.clp (notice the extension)
  • vim like quit :q<=> (exit)
  • runfast <=> (run) (you can't stop it, ctrl+c terminates the programm)

install

The simplest way is to add an alias somewhere in your config (~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc for example)

alias clp="node ~/path/to/this/repos/clips_wrap.js"

Once you've done that it might not work yet because you need to have clips in your $PATH.
