goosh, the Unofficial Google Shell

Posted by kdawson on from the land-a-gooshen dept.

ohxten writes "Stefan Grothkopp has come up with a pretty neat tool called goosh. It's essentially a browser-oriented, shell-like interface that allows you to quickly search Google (and images and news) and Wikipedia and get information in a text-only format. This is quite possibly the coolest thing I've seen in a good while."

    In all seriousness, why not just use Lynx if you want text only?

    I'd be more impressed if it were an actual shell.

    It is amazingly fast, you'd think it was a *real* command line environment: fast and efficient.
