NAME
JSAN::Shell2 - JavaScript Archive Network (JSAN) Shell (2nd Generation)
DESCRIPTION
JSAN::Shell2 provides command handling and dispatch for the jsan2 user application. It interprates these commands and provides the appropriate instructions to the JSAN::Client and JSAN::Transport APIs.
Why Do Another Shell So Soon?
The JavaScript Archive Network, like its predecessor CPAN, is a large system with quite a number of different parts.
In an effort to have a usable repository up, running and usable as quickly as possible, some systems (such as the JSAN shell) were built with the understanding that they would be replaced by lighter, more scalable and more comprehensive (but much slower to write) replacements once they had time to catch up.
JSAN::Shell2 represents the rewrite of the end-user oriented shell component, with JSAN::Client providing the seperate and more general programmatic client interface.
