By default you dont have access to multishell in new tabs so running
multishell.launch({},"rom/programs/lua")
and in new tab
print (shell)
print (multishell)
will both show nil
Should i change it so that you would have access to both apis from anywhere, or only my parent shell should be able to create etc new shells?
edit:
I know that i can pass them with first parameter, but i want to know if i should make it default.

I'd say that access to shell is pretty important for quite a few scripts. multishell, not so much, but I don't see why you'd want to block it.

theyre blocked by default, and im asking if i should unlock them :)/>
edit:
if you use:
multishell.launch({},"rom/programs/shell")
and then enter lua you will see shell table, but multishell will still be inaccessible.

Not so much "blocked" as "just not included". I'm saying your best bet is to provide them unless you can specifically think of a good reason
not to - for example, if you've coded up your own replacements with which you wish to fill the gap.

I would say leave it as it is. Actually, you could make something like 'multishell.run(program, arguments…)' which could work like 'shell.run()' passing shell and multishell APIs to the program.

Im thinking of making something more gui-like, so ill probably go with Bomb Bloke advice and force-include them in every shell.
Making my own replacements isnt a good idea, as it will conflict with programs not created by me, and i want to reduce conflicts by as much as i can.

Is there a reason you're using multishell.launch instead of shell.openTab ?
