Shell

The preferred way to interact with the system, both for humans and other computer systems. C API usage is not recommended since NARS only needs Narsese as input and returns answers and operator executions, which is true for all NARS implementations.

The shell is invoked by running

./NAR shell

The system immediately listens for Narsese input lines and outputs all operator executions and question answers with the following format:

Answer: Narsese

for answers and

^OPNAME executed with args ARG_PRODUCT

for operations, both which can be parsed easily by the application which invokes ONA as a subprocess.
