Jim Mattson's "Haskell shell" may still be distributed as
misc/examples/hsh/Hsh.hs in GHC. I include what I believe
to be a reasonably current (1997) version below.

which may be relevant to this thread. As I dimly recall it was a few
screenfulls of code, and only a "proof of concept". Perhaps one can
find a non-stale link by a web search?

Standard shell practice: move std descriptors out of the way so

Redirections are a bit of a pain, really. If none are specified, we

We parse a command line into words according to the following rules:
1) Anything inside pairs of "" or '' is parsed literally.
2) Anything (outside of quotes) escaped by \ is taken literally.
3) '<' and '>' are words all by themselves, unless escaped or quoted.
4) Whitespace separates words

Here we look for "<" and ">". When we find one, we remove it and the
following word from the word list. The arguments following the redirection
symbols and the remaining words are returned to our caller. However, it's
an error to end a word list with a redirection or for the same redirection
to appear twice.

Executing an external command is pretty simple, but what if it fails?
Fortunately, we don't have any way to redirect stdError just yet,
so we let it complain and then exit.
