Erm... technically the commands from libcmd can be easily used from
other shells ([1]). The commands from libshell require a |Shell_t|
object being created and passed as context which makes it a bit more
tricky to use those commands but it should be possible (see the
"busybox"-like "alias.c" wrapper which uses both commands from libcmd
and libshell).
[1]=(assuming the shells do not rely on any fancy control over files or
signals (the embedding wrapper has to restore the original state anyway
(and AFAIK neither { bash3, bash4, zsh, tcsh } require this))).
