There used to be tons of these and even turn key libraries that do all of this and much much more. Especially in the early to mid 00s. Did you do any research into them before you built this?

#74I sse nothing under Links/lynx.
Meanwhile, sacc/cgo, gem.awk, offpunk, just work like a terminal prompt under an atom n270 netbook.

#75Make ls work and have the commands listed in help show up as programs.

#76Very nice, but if you want to use it professionally you should consider having an alternative "clear text" version for recruiters and the like. The technically minded will find it nice but most people won't know what to do or what any of this means. And you could consider adding `ls`, `cd` and `exit` just for fun -- it was the first thing I've tried.
also dont forget SEO...

#77Love it! I added a little terminal thing to my site awhile back: https://danbednarski.github.io/
It's not really useful, just fun (for me)

er, I assume that they made this site because they're far too good to work for anyone who doesn't want to take the time to find out how it works. In other words, recruiters need not apply.
I would love to hire this person (in theory), but every job I post gets hundreds of inbound applicants, and while hiring is one of the most important aspects of my job, it is second to delivering software with value. I really don’t have time to seek out every person out there who may have a resume, much less a quirky resume, so I send recruiters who work for me to find good candidates for top of funnel. I don’t think there is anything wrong with this.

#80Love seeing folks passion projects like this! Feels very old-web, not just stylistically, but also just the culture of folks making things that _they_ want to and just putting them out there.
I recently put a minor terminal-ish toy on my personal site https://rayjseth.io/ as an excuse to play with the infra to build/deploy go-wasm+Next in Vercel.
Always feel like those labor of love tangent projects are the best place to grow new skills :)
