The '''es shell''' is a [[command line interpreter]] developed by Byron Rakitzis and Paul Haahr, that uses a [[scripting language]] similar to the [[rc shell]] of the [[Plan 9 from Bell Labs|Plan 9]] [[operating system]]. It is intended to provide a fully [[functional programming|functional]] [[programming language]] as a [[Unix shell]]. The bulk of es' development occurred in the early 1990s. A paper on an early version of the es shell was presented at the Winter 1993 [[USENIX]] conference in [[San Diego]].<ref>[http://www.webcom.com/~haahr/es/es-usenix-winter93.html Es: A shell with higher-order functions] by Byron Rakitzis, [[NetApp|NetApp, Inc]], and Paul Haahr, [[Adobe Systems Incorporated]] [Errata note 1]</ref>
