# Description Based of the work and discussion in #10844, this PR adds the `exec` command for Windows. This is done by simply spawning a `std::process::Command` and then immediately exiting via `std::process::exit` once the child process is finished. The child process's exit code is passed to `exit`. # User-Facing Changes The `exec` command is now available on Windows, and there should be no change in behaviour for Unix systems.
Nushell core libraries and plugins
These sub-crates form both the foundation for Nu and a set of plugins which extend Nu with additional functionality.
Foundational libraries are split into two kinds of crates:
- Core crates - those crates that work together to build the Nushell language engine
- Support crates - a set of crates that support the engine with additional features like JSON support, ANSI support, and more.
Plugins are likewise also split into two types:
- Core plugins - plugins that provide part of the default experience of Nu, including access to the system properties, processes, and web-connectivity features.
- Extra plugins - these plugins run a wide range of different capabilities like working with different file types, charting, viewing binary data, and more.
