About runex

runex is a cross-shell abbreviation engine that expands short tokens into full commands in real-time.

  • Cross-shell support (bash / zsh / pwsh / cmd / nushell)
  • Real-time expansion (customizable trigger key)
  • Single config file shared across shells
  • Conditional rules (when_command_exists) — recognizes shell cmdlets, aliases, and user-defined functions, not just PATH binaries
  • Fast and lightweight (Rust core)
